Malicious apps can read local files, Binance warns of vulnerabilities in multiple iOS versions
According to Odaily, Binance warns that iOS 26.7.1, 27.0.1, and 27.2 contain a worse_query system vulnerability, which malicious apps can exploit to read local files, leading to the leakage of mnemonic phrases, private keys, and login credentials. Binance recommends that users update iOS and apps to the latest versions and delete apps from untrusted sources; if they suspect their device has been compromised, they should transfer funds to a new wallet on a secure device and reset all active login sessions.
