Google's secretive and elite team of security researchers have discovered six devastating flaws in Apple's iMessage app, one of which they claim the company has not fixed

Often cyber attacks require some kind of user input to succeed, whether the user clicks"allow" or"yes" on a pop-up, or follows a link, or downloads and executes a malicious file in a phishing email under the impression that it is innocent.

However, this bug allowed what is known as a"no-click" attack, meaning there is no user input needed at all - the hackers could just exploit iMessage with a special command and gain access to the target's files. These bugs were addressed in the iOS 12.4 release, and Apple recommends keeping the operating system as up to date as possible.

We are withholding CVE-2019-8641 until its deadline because the fix in the advisory did not resolve the vulnerabilityBut another of the bugs was not fixed in the most recent update, according to Ms Silvanovich, who said the researchers were witholding the vulnerability because Apple hadn't managed to fix it.

In a statement Apple said:"For the protection of our customers, Apple doesn't disclose, discuss, or confirm security issues until an investigation has occurred and patches or releases are generally available.lists recent releases," the statement added, before stressing:"Keeping your software up to date is one of the most important things you can do to maintain your Apple product's security.

Well, they do that with a lot of software products but MSM only report on it in certain instances. They give the companies time to work on issue/fixes and then release the information. Not a bad thing really (1/2)
