Bug in Apple’s Find My Feature Could’ve Exposed Users’ Location Histories

Cybersecurity researchers on Thursday disclosed flaws in Apple’s Bluetooth location tracking system that can lead to a location correlation attack and unauthorized access to the location history of the past seven days. Apple is said to have partially addressed the issues, stated the researchers, who used their own data for the study citing privacy implications of the analysis. With the upcoming iOS 14.5, the company is expected to add support for Bluetooth tracking devices called AirTags that can be attached to items like keys and wallets, which in turn can be used for tracking purposes right from within the Find My app.
