Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered a vulnerability in some Apple products that could affect your devices.
Researchers said the flaw could affect Apple devices ranging from MacBooks to iPads.
Apple products contain the M1 chipset, also known as PAC for short.
PACs check digital signatures to ensure that the tokens have not been altered by malware or viruses.
But the security flaw has been found in the M1 chips, which power products like MacBooks and iPads, among others.
And researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have designed a software tool that can bypass the vulnerability in the M1 chips.
According to The Sun, a security flaw does not necessarily put anyone’s device at immediate risk.
In a statement to TechRadar, Apple said there were no “immediate risks” to users.
“We want to thank the researchers for their collaboration as this proof of concept advances our understanding of these technologies,” a company spokesperson told TechRadar.
