Researchers have discovered a vulnerability with older iPhones that Apple can't patch.

The team at Paradigm Shift, an independent European cybersecurity firm, published its findings on the flaw, which it calls usbliter8, on its blog on Thursday.

Researchers exploited flaws in the USB controller and the device's firmware to override the boot process (when the phone turns on) and gain control of the device before iOS loads, and even run unauthorized software.
