Kaspersky's Global Research and Analysis Team (GReAT) has exposed a previously unknown 'feature' in Apple iPhones that allows attackers to bypass hardware-based memory protection.
Kaspersky reckons the hardware feature might have been intended for testing or debugging. Certainly, the GReAT gang couldn't find any public documentation on it, which meant the attack vector proved tricky to detect and analyze using the team's usual tools.
