iPhones at risk of remote hacking due to AirPlay vulnerability

Critical security warning from Apple
Technology company Apple has made a statement about a major security vulnerability that directly affects iPhone users. According to the company's warning, critical vulnerabilities detected in the AirPlay feature can make users' devices vulnerable to cyber attacks.
 
Nearly 23 vulnerabilities were detected
A study by cybersecurity firm Oligo found 23 different security vulnerabilities in Apple's AirPlay protocol. Most of these vulnerabilities are found in the AirPlay Software Development Kit (SDK), which is used in devices made compatible with AirPlay by third-party manufacturers.
 
Devices can be hijacked without user interaction
Gal Elbaz, CTO of Oligo, stated that the discovered vulnerabilities enable 'zero-click' attacks. This can allow hackers to infiltrate devices, install malware or steal data without the user taking any action. It was emphasized that vulnerabilities are often difficult to patch, and some devices may never be patched.
 
Precautions to be taken from Apple
To mitigate these security risks, Apple recommends users update their devices to the latest iOS version immediately and disable AirPlay. It is also considered an important security step to only receive files from trusted contacts over AirPlay.
