Show HN: Why Apple's Security Transparency Is a Double-Edged Sword for iOS 18.5
medium.comI spent 120 hours investigating a bizarre 27.2KB iCloud sync corruption that caused a DoS across an entire ecosystem.
What I found was a disturbing reality: The "Unknown Part" camera warning on the hardware wasn't a failure—it was a signature of a modular exploit kit. It appears that Apple's public security advisories are being used as product requirement documents for these automated tools.
In this final part of my trilogy, I analyze how multiple CVEs (RTKit, IOMFB, TCC) were chained together to bypass iOS 18.5’s defenses. I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether we can still trust OS-level authorization when the hardware itself is compromised.
