A possible security vulnerability in iOS devices could let snoops record every key you tap and more, according to researchers from California-based security company FireEye. Reportedly, the vulnerability is found in versions 7.0.4, 7.0.5 and 7.0.6 as well as 6.1.x — even phones that have not been jailbroken. Using this vulnerability, FireEye says it created a proof-of-concept app that was able to record all taps on the screen (this is often called keylogging) as well as the home press button, volume button and TouchID press, and then send that information to a remote server.
