Zimperium is proud to be the global leader in enterprise mobile security. While many of our detection and architectural innovations have come from the efforts of our incredible mobile security experts, others are the result of following one time-tested rule: listening to our customers. One thing customers have consistently told […]
This week at HITB Singapore, Zimperium zLabs’ security researcher, Rani Idan (@raniXCH), is conducting a session titled “The Road to iOS Sandbox Escape.” Rani’s fellow zLab’s researcher, Adam Donenfeld (@doadam), is also conducting a session titled “Viewer Discretion Advised: (De)coding an iOS Vulnerability.” Here is the abstract for Rani’s session. We will post the recording of the session […]

Last Monday, security researchers from iOS jailbreak firm, Pangu Lab, announced a vulnerability that they believe affects around 10% of all iOS apps. In a blog on its newly created information site, https://zipperdown.org/ , Pangu stated that its researchers noticed “a common programming error, which leads to severe consequences such […]
Follow @doadam Following my previous post, I’m releasing ziVA: a fully chained iOS kernel exploit that (should) work on all the iOS devices running iOS 10.3.1 or earlier. The exploit itself consists of multiple vulnerabilities that were discovered all in the same module: AppleAVEDriver. The exploit will be covered in […]
In 1975, a book was published that changed the way we approach complex problems. Inspired on how nature works “Adaptation in Natural and Artificial Systems” set the bases of genetic algorithms. The release date of this blogpost is strongly linked to that book, it is a symbolic tribute to its […]
We see a lot of confusion in the market about precisely what it means to jailbreak a device–and that confusion could lead to serious problems, especially regarding a hacker performing a jailbreak to attack a device. The security industry is notoriously full of acronyms, buzzwords and generally opaque jargon. Here at […]
As part of zLab’s platform research team, I’ve tried to investigate an area of the kernel that wasn’t thoroughly researched before. After digging into some of Apple’s closed-source kernel modules, one code chunk led to another and I’ve noticed a little-known module, which I’ve never seen before, called AppleAVE. AppleAVE was written neglecting basic security […]
Introduction In this blogpost I describe the history of z9, our detection engine. I will show its performance over reference data sets commonly used in the machine learning community. I’ll then describe how we apply it to detect networks attacks without any type of packet inspection. Eventually, we encourage you to participate by helping […]
