CERT-in: Data can be leaked from iPhone and iPad, Central Government has caught many flaws, issued guidelines
CERT-in: The advisory states that any cyber attacker can access sensitive information through the vulnerabilities found on Apple products. Also, security restrictions can be broken by generating code on their own. Apart from this, spoofing attacks can be carried out by disabling the system.
Now, even from your iPhone, iPad, and Apple company's tech products, sensitive information can be leaked. If you do not use them properly, you can also become a victim of spoofing. The security advisory by the Indian Computer Emergency Procedure Team, working under the Central Government, has caught many flaws in Apple products. The Central Government has also issued an advisory for users over this.
The team of the central government has pointed out several flaws in Apple's software. These include iOS and iPadOS versions before 17.6 and 16.7.9, respectively, the macOS Sonoma version before 14.6, the macOS Ventura version before 13.6.8, the macOS Monterey version before 12.7.6, watchOS version before 10.6, tvOS version before 17.6, visionOS version before 1.3, Safari version before 17.6. It has come to light that if any user is using software prior to this version of the company's offerings, then they might be exposed to risk.
The advisory states that any cyber attacker can access sensitive information through the vulnerabilities found on Apple products.
