The iPhone is among the phones people have found very secure, even professionals have found it extremely hard to jailbreak the iphone.
However Reports from Forbes have actually indicated that iphones can be hacked using a malicious charger.
In the upcoming Black Hat security conference in late July, 3 researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology plan to show off a proof-of-concept charger that they say can be used to invisibly install malware on a device running the latest version of Apple’s iOS!
This finding is quite shocking due to the high reputation the iphone has when it comes to security and the mind blowing idea of being hacked through a charger seems odd but true.
So the iphone users should stop using chargers from strangers otherwise their data might be compromised.
