Apple recently pushed the official version update of iOS 15.2, which brought many new contents and bug fixes.

According to Apple jailbreak team Qian Pangu, Apple also fixed a remote jailbreak vulnerability in iOS 15.2, which could "remotely jailbreak" the iPhone in one second.

The white hat hacker slipper from Pangu Lab exploited multiple vulnerabilities in the Safari browser and iOS kernel to launch a combined attack, gaining the highest control authority over the phone and remotely cracking an iPhone 13 in 1 second.

From the perspective of the attack principle, when a user clicks on a forged link, the remote code execution vulnerability of the Safari browser will be triggered, allowing the attacker to remotely execute attack commands.

After bypassing the Safari browser protection mechanism, slipper once again exploited multiple vulnerabilities in the iOS15 kernel and A15 chip to launch a combined attack, successfully bypassing multiple security protection mechanisms and gaining supreme control over the phone. It can obtain information at will, including photo albums, apps, etc., and can even directly delete data on the device or execute other arbitrary commands.

The attack is triggered when a user clicks a link, without any other interactive operations. The entire cracking process takes only 1 second. This vulnerability, which is fast in attack speed and simple in triggering, poses a huge threat to users.
