Apple is Delaying the Review of a Critical iOS 17 Vulnerability to Avoid Official Acceptance and Bounty Payment Hamed Hamedi, a security researcher, has revealed that Apple is prolonging the review process of a serious security vulnerability in the iCloud lock screen, which he discovered in iOS 17. According to Hamedi, he has submitted all the necessary evidence, including multiple videos and detailed explanations, to Apple's security team. However, despite the passage of time and providing precise information, Apple has been stalling the process by asking repetitive questions and requesting additional documentation, effectively delaying the report's resolution. This security bug allows users to bypass the iCloud lock screen using VoiceOver and a few simple gestures, gaining access to various parts of the device. Despite the fact that all the steps are clearly demonstrated in the submitted videos, Apple has refrained from officially acknowledging the bug and processing the associated bounty. Hamedi believes the upcoming release of the iPhone 16 and iOS 18 might be the main reason for these delays, as acknowledging the bug could negatively impact the reputation and security of Apple's new products, potentially eroding customer trust. He suspects that Apple is deliberately postponing the case to prevent the public disclosure of the vulnerability right before the launch of its new products. Apple's delay in addressing such serious security issues raises important questions about the company's priorities in safeguarding user security and maintaining transparency in handling critical problems. It remains unclear what decision Apple will ultimately make regarding this case, but the delays have already sparked significant concern among security experts. https://www.instagram.com/p/C_iZGUJK6ok/?igsh=MTlnMnQ0bGswM2cyYQ==
