Apple has confirmed iBoots source code information. At the same time, the company noted that this leak will not affect the security of data storage. The iBoot code, which was downloaded and upgraded to the network, was developed for the old version of iOS 9 (current version 11.2), so it does not endanger modern devices, said the representative of Apple to Cnet.
."The old three-year-old source code has really escaped, but the security of our products does not depend on code preservation. There are many levels of protection embedded in our products, and we call on users to install new versions of the system to enhance security," Apple said. The publication notes that according to statistics, only 7% of iOS devices use the version of the older 10, released in September 2016. Recall yesterday anonym posted GitHub the source code of the iBoot downloader, which is responsible for the iOS download process. Experts called this leak to be the largest in Apple's history.
