iPhone Vulnerable to Hacking Even When Off

A new report has revealed that iPhones are vulnerable to malware attacks even when they’re turned off. When off, chips still run in a low-power state. The Bluetooth chip in all iPhones has no way to digitally sign or encrypt the firmware it runs, researchers have now developed a method to exploit the lack of security on the chip and run malicious firmware allowing the researchers to track the iPhone’s location or run new features.
