Experts from Google, Natalie Silvanovich and Samuel Gross have discovered five holes in iOS - CVE-2019-8646, CVE-2019-8660, CVE-2019-8647.


Vulnerabilities detected in the iMessage protocol allowed cybercriminals to read any file from the victim’s phone. According to the Niebezpiecznik the vulnerabilities are not dangerous, however new, dangerous variants may develop on their basis.


Apple has introduced appropriate fixes in the 12.4 iOS update, so owners of iOS devices should update their devices manually instead of waiting for autoupdate.
