Researcher Dumps Three iOS Zero-days After Apple Failed To Fix Issues for Months

A security researcher has published details about three iOS zero-day vulnerabilities, claiming that Apple has failed to patch the issues, which they first reported to the company earlier this year. From a report: Going by the pseudonym of Illusion of Chaos, the researcher has published their findings on Russian blogging platform Habr and has released proof-of-concept code for each vulnerability on GitHub. This includes:

1. A vulnerability in the Gamed daemon that can grant access to user data such as AppleID emails, names, auth token, and grant file system access.

2. A vulnerability in the nehelper daemon that can be used from within an app to learn what other apps are installed on a device.

3. An additional vulnerability in the nehelper daemon can also be used from within an app to gain access to a device's WiFi information.
