I haven’t written about Apple’s Lockdown Mode yet, mostly because I haven’t delved into the details. This is how Apple describes it: Lockdown Mode offers an extreme, optional level of security for the very few users who, because of who they are or what they do, may be personally targeted by some of the most … Read More “Apple’s Lockdown Mode” »

This is a new vulnerability against Apple’s M1 chip. Researchers say that it is unpatchable. Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, however, have created a novel hardware attack, which combines memory corruption and speculative execution attacks to sidestep the security feature. The attack shows that pointer authentication can be defeated without leaving … Read More “M1 Chip Vulnerability” »

Apple Mail Now Blocks Email Trackers

apple, e-mail, privacy, Security technology, tracking, Uncategorized

Apple Mail now blocks email trackers by default. Most email newsletters you get include an invisible “image,” typically a single white pixel, with a unique file name. The server keeps track of every time this “image” is opened and by which IP address. This quirk of internet history means that marketers can track exactly when … Read More “Apple Mail Now Blocks Email Trackers” »

AirTags Are Used for Stalking Far More than Previously Reported

Ever since Apple introduced AirTags, security people have warned that they could be used for stalking. But while there have been a bunch of anecdotal stories, this is the first vaguely scientific survey: Motherboard requested records mentioning AirTags in a recent eight month period from dozens of the country’s largest police departments. We obtained records … Read More “AirTags Are Used for Stalking Far More than Previously Reported” »

The malicious uses of these technologies are scary: Police reportedly arrived on the scene last week and found the man crouched beside the woman’s passenger side door. According to the police, the man had, at some point, wrapped his Apple Watch across the spokes of the woman’s passenger side front car wheel and then used … Read More “Stalking with an Apple Watch” »

Bypassing Apple’s AirTag Security

Posted on February 23, 2022 By infossl

A Berlin-based company has developed an AirTag clone that bypasses Apple’s anti-stalker security systems. Source code for these AirTag clones is available online. So now we have several problems with the system. Apple’s anti-stalker security only works with iPhones. (Apple wrote an Android app that can detect AirTags, but how many people are going to … Read More “Bypassing Apple’s AirTag Security” »

Me on App Store Monopolies and Security

Posted on February 1, 2022 By infossl
apple, cybersecurity, laws, monoculture, privacy, Security technology, Uncategorized

There are two bills working their way through Congress that would force companies like Apple to allow competitive app stores. Apple hates this, since it would break its monopoly, and it’s making a variety of security arguments to bolster its argument. I have written a rebuttal: I would like to address some of the unfounded … Read More “Me on App Store Monopolies and Security” »

Posted on January 28, 2022 By infossl
apple, geolocation, intelligence, Security technology, Uncategorized

A German activist is trying to track down a secret government intelligence agency. One of her research techniques is to mail Apple AirTags to see where they actually end up: Wittmann says that everyone she spoke to denied being part of this intelligence agency. But what she describes as a “good indicator,” would be if … Read More “Tracking Secret German Organizations with Apple AirTags” »

Faking an iPhone Reboot

Posted on January 12, 2022 By infossl
apple, ios, iphone, malware, Security technology, Uncategorized

Researchers have figured how how to intercept and fake an iPhone reboot: We’ll dissect the iOS system and show how it’s possible to alter a shutdown event, tricking a user that got infected into thinking that the phone has been powered off, but in fact, it’s still running. The “NoReboot” approach simulates a real shutdown. … Read More “Faking an iPhone Reboot” »
