FLAW IN APPLE'S IMESSAGE ENCRYPTION LETS HACKERS SNOOP PHOTOS

• iPhone's iMessage had an encryption flaw that allowed skilled hackers to open pictures and videos
• the attack targeted photos stored in the iCloud
• as said on the website, this happens like this...
• "The software intercepted an iMessage message containing a link to a photo on Apple's iCloud storage, which we reported is used to transmit video and photos, and then pinged the iPhone with a guess at the 64-bit encryption key. If the guess was wrong, then the software changed one digit, and tried again. When they did get a digit right, the phone's software confirmed it. Then, it was a matter of having the software repeat the process thousands of times."
• the iOS 9.3 update should get rid of this bug once and for all
