Be careful with your password! Another surprising bug in iOS 8

Be careful with your password! Another surprising bug in iOS 8

As the use of mobile devices becomes more widespread, it is important for users to be aware of various methods that attempt to steal personal data or passwords.

According to security expert Jan Soucek, a new email-based bug has recently emerged. This bug attempts to steal users' passwords by popping up a login window similar to iCloud. Hackers send email messages to target users and load HTML content remotely. At the same time, a window similar to iCloud verification pops up. If the user enters the Apple ID and password, the account will be stolen and the information will be leaked.

Soucek said he discovered this bug in January and reported it to Apple, but Apple has not responded to this issue. So Soucek made his discovery public through the Internet and released a package called "Mail.app injection package" in the hope of attracting the attention of users and Apple.

Apple has not responded to this issue yet. Apple has just fixed the "death code" bug in iOS 8.4 Beta 4. Now a new bug has been exposed. I hope Apple can fix it as soon as possible.
