Any iPhone it can be blocked with a simple text message that can be sent by anyone, and in the video clip below you can see how everything can be exploited in iOS. We are talking about a problem that affects inclusively WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and other applications from the Android platform, it was discovered last week and we told you about it.
iPhones can't be blocked as easily as Android apps, and that's because sending a simple black dot isn't enough. In order for the iPhone Messages application, but probably others are also affected, to be blocked, it is necessary to send a message that contains several black dots, the procedure working on any iPhone model, or even iOS.
LOCK Any iPhone with this Text Message
After receiving this message on iPhone phones, the applications that receive them will be completely blocked, and in the case of older phones, it is very possible that everything will be much more difficult. It is not yet known what exactly triggers the receipt of this message, since the applications are blocked and the phones are also affected, but the people from Apple will solve the problem.
iOS 11.4 beta 4 is also affected by this exploit, so Apple will surely analyze it and find a solution to solve the problem before the release of the public version. Until then, if someone sends a message like this, the only solution to solve the problem is to restart the phones, otherwise the applications will stop working.
