iOS 6.1.4: a security bypass

Paul Ducklin manages to make an article on Apple ships jolly uninteresting iOS 6.1.4 update  prettyinteresting.

From the point of view of iOS security, though, the only interesting feature is that it doesn’t add any security features. More specifically, it doesn’t fix the lockscreen bug introduced in 6.1.3. And in fact unless you have an iPhone 5, there’s nothing there for you at all.
