New iOS bug disables Wi-Fi forcing users to factory reset their device

Washington: A new iOS bug had been found that might prevent users from connecting to Wi-Fi networks for good unless they are fine with factory resetting the phone

According to Mashable, when triggered, the bug disables the Wi-Fi feature on the affected iPhones. Essentially, users won’t be able to activate Wi-Fi or use features like AirDrop.

Now, a more severe variant of the iPhone Wi-Fi bug has been found by an equivalent security researcher who discovered the first bug in June.
