Security expert discovered a critical vulnerability in iOS 12 which could allow attackers to access photos and contacts on a locked iPhone.

Jose Rodriguez, a tech expert, discovered a passcode bypass vulnerability on the iOS 12 and latest iOS 12.1 beta operating systems.

According to Rodriquez, the hack works on the latest iPhone XS and some of the other models also.
