An Apple smartphone can be jailbroken using regular glue. This is stated in a YouTube video published by Kraken Security.
Security experts have described a way to jailbreak any iPhone with a fingerprint sensor (Touch ID) using glue. The authors noted that smartphone users often leave fingerprints on the panel of the device, which can be used against the owners of devices. The video showed how a fingerprint is transferred to a special film. Then the experts applied a layer of regular office glue to the copy and smeared it with a fork.
After the glue has dried, a voluminous fingerprint is obtained. The author of the video put it on his finger and successfully unlocked someone else’s iPhone. The video also shows how you can hack any other device with a fingerprint sensor using glue – for example, a MacBook or a digital wallet.
In conclusion, Kraken Security experts noted that the fingerprint sensor cannot provide complete data protection on the device. The authors recommended using a strong password and two-factor authentication.
In late October, it became known that the Pangu Lab hackers had carried out the first remote hacking of a new Apple smartphone. The iPhone 13 jailbreak process took one second.
