The news has come through a Dutch newspaper, where two Hackers gave data on the possible violation of the locking system of stolen iPhone. This breach allowed them to trick the iPhone and get the unlock, which would allow resell stolen iPhones that had been remotely locked using iCloud and Find My iPhone.
How serious is the news? The reality is that the importance is magnified. It is said that iCloud has been hacked, and the truth is not entirely correct. Nobody has really come into any Apple server, really is a very old trick of "hacking" that have managed to run, supplant the identity of servers.
To do believe the iPhone is communicating with a computer which is not really. Believed to be in communication with Apple's servers when it is really a computer "in the middle" that dictates what to do.
Using a security breach of iTunes for Windows, deceive the lock iPhone that is the real Apple server which is asking for unlocking. This would allow iPhones stolen and remotely blocked can be released and sold. They could even access the information that once unlocked iPhone.
The hackers have not revealed their system, but is rumored to have taken five months to get it. Most likely we will see an update to iTunes in the coming weeks.
