Odaily Planet Daily News Recently, Apple released an updated version of the iOS17 operating system, in which it thanked Web3 security audit company CertiK. Blockchain security audit company CertiK discovered three security vulnerabilities in Apple's iOS kernel, which will affect several Apple devices that previously used iOS17. According to information on Apple's official security update page, these vulnerabilities affect the kernel, GPU driver, and ProRes driver, and allow "an application... to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges." In the latest release, Apple has addressed these vulnerabilities by improving memory handling. As Web3 applications gradually become mainstream, the security of mobile devices when accessing these applications is particularly critical. In August of this year, CertiK discovered two security vulnerabilities in iOS16.6 and successfully assisted Apple in improving the security of its system. CertiK has been accumulating power on the Web3 mobile application side for a long time. As early as May of this year, South Korea's Samsung Group thanked CertiK in its official report for fixing important vulnerabilities.
