'Graykey' Tool Used by Law Enforcement Can Only Partially Unlock iOS 18 Devices

Quick Summary:

Graykey parent company Magnet Forensics does not share information about the tool, and complete details about the devices that Graykey can unlock have not surfaced before.

Graykey takes advantage of ‌iPhone‌ vulnerabilities to unlock devices, and its capabilities can change as Apple patches security flaws.

Earlier this year, a leak from Israel-based mobile forensics company Cellebrite suggested that its tools are unable to unlock iPhones that are running iOS 17.4 or later, but it is now able to access devices running iOS 17.5.1.
