ins0mnia vulnerability (already patched - Please update your iOS)


Vulnerabilities are bad but the names associated with them are interesting. (just like this one)

This has been patched so applying the patch is not our responsibility




From the Article:

Mobile app exploiting this vulnerability could also look benign enough to slip past Apple’s security protections guarding the App Store 

“A malicious application could leverage the Ins0mnia vulnerability to run in the background and steal sensitive user information for an unlimited time without the user’s consent or knowledge,” 

More disturbing, FireEye said, is the fact that a malicious app targeting this vulnerability can run on non-jailbroken iPhones and iPads.
