Ondrej Holzman In iOS 7, the first security issue was noted. José Rodriguez discovered a hole in the locked screen, through which you can - despite the presence of a number lock - access photos and subsequently social networks and e-mail. All it takes is a few simple gestures…

A few "strokes" are enough for sensitive material that a stranger should not have access to. On the lock screen, first bring up the Control Center and open the Clock app. With the app open, hold down the power button until a menu pops up and tap on Zrušit. After that, double-press the Home button and multitasking will pop up, through which you can access the camera.
This is normally accessible even through a locked phone, however, without knowing the code, you cannot access the images. However, using the mentioned procedure, the library will also be displayed. It is important to call up the camera application from the lock screen before the whole process, so that it appears in multitasking.
From the images, the user can easily get to accounts on social networks and e-mail, because photos can be shared normally through these services.
Rodriguez the entire procedure filmed and demonstrated it on an iPhone 5 with iOS 7 and an iPad with iOS 5. It's not certain whether the same procedure works on the new iPhone 5S and XNUMXC, but Rodriguez is confident it will work. Forbes reached out to Apple for comment, has yet to receive a response.
Currently, the easiest way to eliminate this security issue is to disable the Control Center on the lock screen. But Apple should soon solve the problem without this measure being necessary.
This will be an iPhone 4S or 4.
Interesting hack.
It didn't work for me on 5ke :)
So on the iPad it means it works. It is important to double-click home right after clicking "cancel".
It also works on the iPhone 4S, you just have to be quick and double-click immediately after canceling the shutdown.
On the iPhone 5, it shows the background app, but it won't let me switch to any, only back to the "clock" setting. So nothing interesting.
So it doesn't work for me on 4s :D
it doesn't work for me either, it's a shitty video probably from the beta ;)
interesting ... but I can't do it ...
It doesn't work for me either, no matter what I do, it's another Hoax to damage the Apple brand :-)
Please can someone test whether WiFI works for you on 5Ghz on the iPhone 5? It stopped working for me after installing IOS7. Thanks
It works for me without a problem
It works on my iP5 and IPad2
It works on the iPhone 4, but in multitasking you can't access other applications or the desktop. Anyway, even so, the user gets further than he should. Of course, getting to the photos is not the slightest problem.
I can't even access photos on the iPhone 5. If I want to take photos, it gives me a message that I should unlock my phone first. The only thing is that even with a locked mobile, anyone can take photos and use applications from the control center (if it is accessible on the locked screen).
It doesn't work for me on the iPhone 5. If it's not on some beta version...
Ipad mini and ip4 work with official ios 7
It works.., tested on ip5
You have to press the home button twice and cancel it very quickly after pressing the button..
Well, my iPod touch 5 does not have this error.
wouldn't it be safer to tell the manufacturer and not lead the rest of the world to invade others' privacy?
It doesn't work for me... a slightly different thing happened to me, for which a warning was issued today... I have Vodfone and thanks to imessage and face time I was charged a beautiful 400 in one day :D
Does anyone know how to turn off the code when the screen is locked?
I'm tired of entering the code every time I unlock. Thanks
settings>general>password lock (mg)
I had an iPhone 5 downloaded for about 5 minutes after 19:00 and it doesn't work...
there are such interesting things here that I feel as if even a small diet could get into "sensitive data" :D
