Civil / east also falls
Recently, the associated author Matthew Hickey of Hacker House of network security company claimed to discover a kind can IPhone of steer clear of and the new method that IPad password lock restricts. This method needs to pass IPhone Lightning data line and computer connection, knock with clavier give a code, can spark other of a precede over is all of the request suspend a request.
That is to say, the person that have the intention that defeat solution can fall in this circumstances, send different password request continuously, such systems can handle a request because of busying and do not spark the command that the lock is decided or deletes data for long, make aggressor can undertake the password of the frequency defeats interpret attempt do not bounds.
At present Hickey had given an apple the company, and state this flaw discovers difficulty is not great, may be aware of by someone else so. Like Cellebrite such company is the government before this offer the Shengbainadinuo that solve a lock the method of IPhone of pop case murderer, probable was to exploit this loophole.
Say in the statement that Dan Ping is publishing external recently if really, hickey is so called it is completely " the result that is based on a kind of wrong test " . And after this Hickey also is being pushed especially medium the statement that issues a message to represent approve of apple, revised oneself the view before this, call this method the state when the likelihood won't appear to be imagined at first.
Hickey expresses, the PIN code that is not all tests can be entered " processor of safe land of one province or county enlosed by that of another " , because the input is too fast,exist with what allot a state by accident, make although code of a few PIN looks be being checked, but did not send actually go out, do not meet so by computation. In short, although grow long password string to be sent,arrive namely on the mobile phone, but actually the mobile phone recorded a few only just.
Nevertheless, malic respect still is a nip in the bud, one kind is joined to suffer in IOS 12 system be restricted mode, it is the time that IPhone can cut off to pass USB and computer connection 1 hour after the password is defeated by a fault, the password that prevents IOS system thereby is defeated to solve by hacker force.
Actually again forth date from, in the Beta version of IOS 11.4, had installed USB Restricted Mode (USB restricts mode) , the purpose is promotion security. It is under this one mode, if want to get the data of IOS equipment through USB, must make sure equipment is in the condition that solve a lock. When equipment is the condition that lock up screen, need to input password Fang Kejian to establish data to join after join.
this pair of average users, undoubted more safe, but obtain evidence to the government and character is equal to however added a protective screen again. This is to be aimed at that to claim " can defeat the caddy that sees all IPhone products " GrayKey installs. Its company GrayShift does not wish to reveal the method that defeat solution all the time, dan Ping fruit this setting can break off his to cut solution hole from germ probably.
All the time since, about the apple alleged " the method that defeat solution " all the time have not discontinuity. Itself of system of Dan Ping fruit closes, together with accuses to be sent more to the canal of this respect nowadays strict, the apple is telling each with the action, think the IOS that defeat solution " not so simple " .
