Chinese hackers break into iPhone 13 Pro in 15 seconds





Some of the best hackers in China get a chance to show off their skills at the Tianfu Cup organised in Chengdu, China, every year. This year too, the competition saw some crazy hacking skills that surprised many technology firms such as Apple. For instance, hackers were able to hack the newly launched iPhone 13 Pro running on iOS 15.0.2 in record time. Not once, but twice. 


One of the teams was Kunlun Lab which was successful in breaking into the iPhone 13 Pro in under 15 seconds. Kunlun Lab’s CEO is the former CTO of Qihoo 360. The team exploited a vulnerability in the Safari browser to hack the smartphone.  


The CEO hacked the smartphone live in front of everyone in a mere 15 seconds. He, however, undertook weeks of preparation before attempting the hack. As of now, the hacking group didn’t reveal how it was able to hack the smartphone. 


Kunlun Lab was not the only team to hack the iPhone 13 Pro, with the other team being Team Pangu. The latter team has a history of hacking Apple devices. At the recently concluded championship, the team was able to hack the iPhone 13 smartphone in a record time winning $300,000. 


Both the hacking teams have already shared or will share the information related to the security flaws in the iOS 15.0.2 software to Apple so that the tech giant can secure their latest iPhone 13 smartphone range.

Apple is expected to take note of the feedback from the hackers to improve its security. Besides Apple products, several hackers targeted other software such as Windows 10, Microsoft Exchange and Google Chrome, among others.

Supercomputer Can Calculate in 1 Second What Would Take You 6 Billion Years

It's shiny, fast and ultrapowerful. But it's not the latest Alpha Romeo. A physics laboratory in Tennessee just unveiled Summit, likely to be named the world's speediest and smartest supercomputer. Perhaps most exciting for the U.S.? It's faster than China's. Hot 100 smartphones The supercomputer — which fills a server room the size of two tennis courts — can spit out answers to 200 quadrillion (or 200 with 15 zeros) calculations per second, or 200 petaflops, according to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where the supercomputer resides. "If every person on Earth completed one calculation per second, it would take the world population 305 days to do what Summit can do in 1 second," according to an ORNL statement. Put another way, if one person were to run the calculations, hypothetically, it would take 2.3 trillion days, or 6.35 billion years.
