San Bernardino iPhone was hacked using a zero-day exploit
When a couple of terrorists attacked and killed 14 people in San Bernardino, California in December last year, an iPhone 5c was recovered, and it’s been in the news almost as much as the terror attack itself. The phone was said to contain pertinent information that the FBI really wanted their mitts on, and the Washington Post today reports that it was able to, with the help of professional hackers using a security flaw in the iPhone that was previously unknown.
