Not long ago, Apple solved the iMessage vulnerability named chaiOS (the system of iOS and macOS devices crashes and restarts with a single link). Similar problems were solved again. According to Mobile World's explanation and The vulnerability reproduced by The user station The Verge, as long as The Apple device receives a specific Hindi character, either iOS or macOS will have problems, this time, even Apple Wach was not spared.

This is an Indian and Telugu character, which can cause software problems as long as it is received by Apple devices, communication software such as iMessage, WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook Messenger, Gmail, and Outlook are also affected. Fortunately, this problem does not affect the iOS SpringBoard. It only serves as the communication software, and the same problem also occurs in the watchOS software. The trouble is that, according to Mobile Wolrd, laptops, Safari, and App Store on Mac computers are all affected, and the range is greater than the system of Mobile devices.

However, the most difficult part of this issue is that when the iPhone communication software becomes behind the host for this character, users who want to re-enable the app will also be on the machine again (after chaiOS is restarted, It will be okay, it's a bit of a worry ...). The user needs to delete the problematic message in other ways before starting the app on the iPhone. The Verge indicates that if this character is received through iMessage, you can ask a friend to send you a normal SMS to enter The message app, and then you can delete this iMessage. Gmail or other desktop apps, you can try to enter the service on a different system or browser, and then delete the problem message.

Apple immediately confirmed the problem and promised to launch the iOS update to solve the problem as soon as possible. It will not wait until iOS 11.3 or even iOS 12. MacOS and watchOS have similar measures. Before large scheduled updates are released, add a patch update for this vulnerability.
