Photos and contacts of iPhone 6S were accessed without unlocking – Clubic

Apple pushed this night a fix on its servers in order to fill an important gap: thanks to some precise manipulations involving Siri and 3D Touch (exclusive to iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, the only two touchdowns so), it was possible . access to photos and contacts without knowing the unlock code an iPhone

on a video he posted on YouTube, called the Jose Rodriguez showed his “formula” to an iPhone locked, he appealed to Siri (either vocally or using the “Home” button), and requests the Apple assistant to search Twitter an email address (no matter which, simply pronounced ” @ gmail.com “to the engine finds a match for sure).

Since then, Siri offers a clickable email address where Rodriguez uses 3D Touch to open a menu contextual and add this email address to an existing contact. The system runs, giving access to the contact list and even photos in the iPhone if you want to add a picture to your contact.

Apple has fixed this problem working directly on its servers (and updated iOS so), since it is they who dictate to Siri how it operates. Now when you make use Siri to perform a search on Twitter while the phone is locked, a code is requested.
