Apple Watch are astazi o problema critica anuntata si rezolvata de catre compania Apple, americanii lucrand foarte repede pentru a se asigura ca ai lor clienti nu sunt afectati. Mai exact, cei de la Apple au fost atentionati ca in aplicatia Walkie Talkie din Apple Watch exista o problema foarte grava care permite spionarea telefoanelor iPhone.
Apple Watch a avut implementata functia Walkie Talkie pentru ca utilizatorii sa poata vorbi unii cu altii ca si cum ar face-o folosind statii de emisie-receptie. Din pacate, se pare ca aplicatia nu a fost creata prea bine, iar vulnerabilitatea descoperita le permitea hackerilor sa asculte telefoanele iPhone.
Apple Watch are aplicatia Walkie Talkie dezactivata din serverele Apple, deci nu mai poate fi folosita pana cand aceasta vulnerabilitate va fi rezolvata. Nu se stie de cat timp va avea nevoie Apple pentru a rezolva vulnerabilitatea, nici daca va fi necesara o actualizare pentru watchOS, asa ca trebuie doar sa avem rabdare.
We were just made aware of a vulnerability related to the Walkie-Talkie app on the Apple Watch and have disabled the function as we quickly fix the issue. We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience and will restore the functionality as soon as possible. Although we are not aware of any use of the vulnerability against a customer and specific conditions and sequences of events are required to exploit it, we take the security and privacy of our customers extremely seriously. We concluded that disabling the app was the right course of action as this bug could allow someone to listen through another customer’s iPhone without consent. We apologize again for this issue and the inconvenience.
