**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** iOS versions prior to 10.2 macOS versions prior to 10.12.2 watchOS versions prior to 3.1.3 **Description** The issue involves the Security component and makes it easier for attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging the use of the 3DES cipher. This is due to the insufficient strength of the 3DES encryption scheme. The exploitation of this issue may allow a remote attacker to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms. **Recommendations** For iOS versions prior to 10.2, update to version 10.2 or later. For macOS versions prior to 10.12.2, update to version 10.12.2 or later. For watchOS versions prior to 3.1.3, update to version 3.1.3 or later.
