Graykey tool helps 'hack' iPhone 16.

A recent report from 404 Media indicates that Graykey now has access to Apple's latest iPhone 16 models. Specifically, the tool can access "partial" information from devices running iOS 18 or iOS 18.0.1, including the iPhone 16 series.

Graykey can bypass the security measures of iOS 18.

However, the specific meaning of "partially" remains unclear. Leaked documents also show that Graykey cannot access iPhones running the iOS 18.1 beta, and it is likely that this restriction also applies to the official version of iOS 18.1 that Apple will release in late October.

Graykey is just one of two tools for unlocking iPhones.

Like other unlocking products like Cellebrite, the company that owns Graykey, Magnet Forensics, is very secretive about how the tool works. However, what we do know is that these companies are constantly looking for new vulnerabilities on iPhones to do their work. Since iOS 12 in 2018, Apple has consistently patched security vulnerabilities to prevent unauthorized unlocking.

404 Media also points out that Magnet Forensics may find a way to unlock iOS 18, iOS 18.1, and subsequent versions. Currently, developers are testing iOS 18.2, which Apple is expected to release in December.

It's important to note that products like Graykey and Cellebrite require direct access to the device to function, meaning that methods of hacking an iPhone 16 through them are not common and cannot be performed remotely.

User security and privacy have always been core principles of Apple. The company has consistently rejected requests from several governments to create "backdoors" to access data. For those concerned about unauthorized access to their phones, installing the latest software update is essential. For iPhones, users are advised to update to iOS 18.1.1, and for iPads, the update is iPadOS 18.1.1.
