This bug crashes iPhones running iOS 17, and causes those running the iOS 18 beta to stutter.
TechCrunch initially spotted this weird OS bug — but thankfully, it doesn’t seem to represent a security risk. It can only be leveraged by iPhone users to annoy themselves.
Earlier this week, Konstantin, a security researcher and lead pentester for German security firm USD AG, posted on infosec.exchange the details of an iOS bug that causes Springboard — the app that manages the iPhone’s home screen — to crash.
