Thanks to iOS 17.2, the Flipper Zero vulnerability that locked iPhones has been closed!
Flipper Zero is basically a very cute looking hacking device. It can interact with other devices in its environment through different methods such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. In this way, you can hack any device you want and take a look at the data. The Flipper Zero nightmare, which exploited security vulnerabilities in devices, ended on iPhone models with iOS 17.2. At least until the product and its developers find a new vulnerability.
Using Xtreme’s 3rd party software, the mini hack device locked iPhone models with a simple method. He was performing simple operations such as opening many Apple TV applications or the keyboard on the device. However, the intensity of these operations tired the devices and caused them to crash. Of course, there are also DoS attacks that Flipper Zero inflicts on all iPhones within a 30 meter radius.
