  • Faking an iPhone shutdown could allow malware to survive a reboot

    Gotta keep in mind that for security researchers everything is an apocalypse. Apparently you have to install an app with the malicious code and how do you do that unless you jailbreak your iPhone. Another nothing-burger here. Let’s move along, please.

    From the practical compromise POV; I fully agree. However to say this is a nothing-burger misses the point, IMO. The publication of the researcher's discoveries provides 3rd party research to back Apple's position about side-loading apps and the security implications that come from it.

    This is what makes this an important thing and not a nothing-burger.
