Binance Warns of Apple iOS Flaw That Could Expose iPhone Users' Private Keys

Binance warned iPhone users that the iOS flaw "worse_query" could let malicious apps read files stored by other apps, risking seed phrases, private keys and login credentials. The flaw affects iOS 26.7.1, 27.0.1 and 27.2; a researcher published it as a sandbox escape proof of concept, and no confirmed crypto thefts using it have been reported. Apple released iOS 27.2.1 the day after the proof of concept, but its security notes do not mention worse_query, and Apple has not confirmed the update fixes it.
