Apple Watch has a security flaw: it can listen to other people's iPhones

Walkie-Talkie mainly provides walkie-talkie functions to users. presentlyapplesThe party has officially responded to the matter. They did not disclose the nature of the bug, but said the app was temporarily disabled while resolving the issue. However, Apple has not indicated when they will be able to finish fixing the bug.

Earlier, a network security researcher broke the news that the video conferencing software Zoom can automatically turn on the Mac user's camera without the user's consent. There are still risks even if it is uninstalled. According to foreign media reports, Apple has updated macOS to fix this bug.

The vulnerability in question is caused by a web server in the Zoom program on the Mac. The server automatically accepts requests and starts a video conference. However, even if the user removes the program, the web server remains on the phone and continues to accept requests, and automatically installs Zoom on the Mac without the user's consent.

The flaw sends malicious links to users through Zoom's sharing meeting function. Users only need to open it once, and they will continue to be added to invalid meetings. Apple has now taken further steps to remove the relevant web server and automatically update for Mac users. Users can fix it without a manual update.
