Binance issued a security advisory regarding an iOS flaw affecting versions 26 and 27, allowing apps to read other applications' files.
Following researcher forcequit's publication of the worse_query code, developers have examined the implications for data isolation and credential security across mobile environments.
The issue affects iPhones running iOS versions 26 and 27. According to the warning, if a suspicious app gains access, important data such as cryptocurrency digital keys, secret recovery phrases, and login details are at risk.
How did the issue become known?
The problem was discovered when a researcher named forcequit posted code called worse_query online. He said the code is intended for developers and is not a ready-made attack application on its own. However, other developers have already created applications based on it, such as WQ Files, which can access data from other applications.
Apple has released updates for iOS 26 and 27, but they do not include any fixes for the issue. So far, there have been no reported incidents of theft or attacks related to the situation.
What does Binance offer?
The company advises users to delete applications from untrusted sources and keep their mobile and applications updated.
