Similar things goes to iPhone users that still stuck on iOS 15 (and soon iOS 16), the still receiving some security updates.

it is incredible that such touchless vulnerabilities continue to keep getting discovered in iOS. Something seems fundamentally wrong with the system's architecture and / or processes.
The users are left wondering and helpless when the exploits don't involve interaction.

Some company (Citizen Lab) discovered the vulnerability, alerted Apple and immediately Apple released a patch to fix the vulnerability.
Good luck waiting for Xiaomi or Realme or whatever to fix such vulnerabilities. Lol.
They do the old c*mmunism trick, put them all under the doormat and never talk about them. And from exterior everything is "perfect" and "flawless".

Haha!
Every major telecom company in this country is now goverment owned, good luck fixing "software exploits" when they can just directly hook into your stream 😂

Genuine question: is it still possible to hack/exploit a fix or once a fix is implemented, it's fixed forever and hackers/code sniffers just change track to exploiting a different vulnerability?

Anonymous, 10 Sep 2023iOS is very secure compared to Android. A lot of iPhone use... moreThere are antivirus and spyware apps that scan your old android devices and protect them.
Also the security updates on Android be like for latest android version only or something. Or like each android version get like 1-2 years of security updates support.
The threat to get something is more where there are more users on one operation system number. When more IOS users have the latest IOS number that means there are more users to exploit with.
Windows is a mess of viruses and spyware cause the market is the largest for that OS. People who want security use Linux as the market is a lot smaller and there for the criminals dont waste there time on making viruses and spyware for Linux and Mac OS.
I would not say that it's more secure when there are more users on the latest OS number as from my point of view that makes it more dangerous.
Also when the exploit is on specific OS number then it probably wont affect the people who are on older OS number in for example on Android where a lot of people still on Android 7 to 9 so the backdoor for the virus probably is not made for that older OS number as that can be from the newer number by mistake that allows the exploit
