Binance Warns of Apple iOS Flaw That Could Expose iPhone Private Keys

Binance has warned iPhone users of an Apple iOS vulnerability that could expose their private keys, noting the “worse_query” bug was published by a researcher days before Apple’s latest iOS security update. Apple has not publicly confirmed the flaw. The exchange’s alert highlights the risk to crypto wallets stored on affected devices.

The alert matters less for the technical details than for the trust gap it exposes: a major exchange is flagging a flaw Apple has not publicly confirmed, leaving users to weigh an unverified warning against an unpatched risk. Wallet-holding iPhone users sit at the center of that ambiguity, since self-custodied keys on a compromised device offer no exchange-side backstop. Whether Apple acknowledges the bug, and whether the disclosure timeline around the researcher's publication and the iOS update is clarified, is the open question worth watching.
