Apple recently released iOS 6.1.3 which included a fix
for the passcode bypass bug that would allow an unauthorized person to access
the Phone app on a locked iPhone.
One day after the update, however, Matthew Panzarino of The Next Web is
reporting that a new bypass bug has been discovered, this time by
videosdebarraquito.
The passcode bypass in the previous versions of iOS 6
required a series of well-timed taps and button presses. The result was full
access to the Phone app on a locked device without entering the passcode. This
new bug (not quite new, it seems to have existed prior to iOS 6.1.3) requires a
sequence that’s a little easier to execute as can be seen in this video. For
some reason, this bypass seems to to be more difficult to accomplish on newer,
Siri-capable devices.
A new lockscreen bypass has been discovered in iOS 6.1.3,
notes iPhone in Canada. Unlike the tricks discovered in iOS 6.1, the new one
appears to affect only the iPhone
4. It also, unusually, involves popping out an iPhone's SIM card while
using Voice Control to dial an emergency number.
