Researchers Show Persistent iOS Lockdown Mode Jailbreak via AirDrop

Security researchers have demonstrated a jailbreak that works even when iOS Lockdown Mode is enabled, exploiting AirDrop to gain root access that survives reboots and major iOS updates. The finding is significant because Lockdown Mode is Apple's most restrictive security configuration, marketed as protecting high-risk users such as journalists and activists from advanced attacks. The disclosure is circulating widely in cybersecurity circles, with observers weighing what it means for the real-world effectiveness of Apple's protections.
Why now: A jailbreak persisting through reboots and updates despite Lockdown Mode challenges Apple's flagship security claim, drawing attention from the security community.
