An iOS security researcher has released a tool that could bypass Apple’s boot security. The tool uses a “permanent unpatchable bootrom exploit” for millions of Apple devices. The exploit has not yet been turned into a kit for jailbreaking the phone, something that requires specialized hardware and software. The vulnerability was uncovered as the result of a patch issued to the beta of iOS 12 in the summer of 2018, the developer said. It’s possible that this exploit has been found by other researchers and is already in use by intelligence and law enforcement agencies.”]
