Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions iOS versions prior to 10.2

Description The issue involves the SpringBoard component and allows physically proximate attackers to maintain the unlocked state via vectors related to Handoff with Siri. This could potentially allow a local attacker to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information by exploiting errors in security settings related to the Siri application.

Recommendations For iOS versions prior to 10.2, update to version 10.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of Siri and Handoff features to minimize the risk of exploitation.
