Another iOS 6 passcode security flaw

Written by

The iOS update yesterday fixed a passcode flaw, but apparently there’s another one.

    I’m always amazed at how these guys come up with such weird combination of steps to get the flaws to work. It reminds me of the AB up and down left, right, select, start old trick (something like that) on the original Nintendo consoles.

    Apparently this only happens on the iPhone 4. Not that it’s not an issue. Also, apparently you only gain access to contacts.

      Are you sure about that? It seems like it should just require Siri be off.

      Edit: They’ve updated the article since I first read it. It now specifies that Voice Dial needs to be on (so Siri needs to be off). Otherwise, it works on anything.
