GOOGLE ANNOUNCES A SERIES OF BASIC VULNERABILITIES THAT MAY PROVIDE ENTRY POINTS FOR HACKER

ROVIDENTRY POINTS

Google’s security team, Project Zero, has once again announced a series of basic vulnerabilities on the iOS system. These loopholes may provide entry points for hackers. In July last year, the Google Project Zero team announced six “no interaction” security vulnerabilities affecting the iOS system. Four of the vulnerabilities can lead to the execution of malicious code on remote iOS devices without user interaction. The others allow attackers to leak data from the device memory and read files from remote devices without user intervention.

In the past week, Apple has two security issues that have become a focus of attention. For example, a security report claimed that a maliciously crafted email may cause Apple’s own mail application to crash. This then causes a backdoor loophole for further attacks. Apple iOS vulnerabilities in recent times have something in common, it uses the basic processing system. By triggering an unexpected software response on the device, the normally locked controls may exhibit unpredictable behavior, thus opening the door to attacks.
