Recently a new kind of vulnerability has been found which depicts that an iPhone with a password lock is not secure from hackers. The vulnerability allows the hackers to breach password locks and gain access to users’ personal data and personal information. This is really a serious matter if you require safety and want to hide secret documents in your phone. This Vulnerability was first detected by Vulnerability Lab in a Full Disclosure report and further detailed on Kaspersky Labs’.

The bloggers of threatpost says that hackers breach the iPhone password lock security by utilizing Emergency call function. This loop hole provides the user access to the contact lists, voicemails and photos. The writer of Threatpost.com says; “The exploit involves manipulating the phone’s screenshot function, its emergency call function and its power button,” He further says that “users have the access to make an emergency call on the phone and then cancel it while toggling the power on and off to get temporary access to the phone.”

These loop holes provide hackers to download the data of locked iPhone to another smartphone via USB cord and a computer. The exploit works on iPhone 5 devices running iOS 6.1 software.
