🔒🔌 Apple addresses critical security flaw in iOS and iPadOS. On Monday, Apple released urgent security updates for iOS and iPadOS to fix a vulnerability (CVE-2025-24200) that has reportedly been exploited in targeted attacks. This flaw allows malicious actors to disable USB Restricted Mode on locked devices, requiring physical access to exploit. USB Restricted Mode is designed to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data by blocking communication with accessories if the device hasn’t been unlocked within the past hour. The updates are available for various devices, including iPhone XS and later, and several iPad models. This comes shortly after Apple addressed another security issue related to the Core Media component, highlighting ongoing concerns about zero-day vulnerabilities in its software.
