Binance has warned crypto users about a serious iOS vulnerability, called worse_query, that could let malicious apps read files stored by other apps on an iPhone. The flaw affects iOS versions 26.7.1, 27.0.1 and 27.2, the exchange said, putting seed phrases, private keys and login details at risk. Binance stressed the issue sits in Apple’s operating system and is not limited to its own app, meaning any wallet or finance app on an affected device could be exposed. The exchange urged users to delete apps installed from unofficial sources, including sideloaded or manually signed files, and to update iOS and all apps to the latest official versions. Anyone who suspects a breach should move funds to a new wallet set up on a clean device and log out of all active sessions. Apple has not yet commented publicly.
