Apple is expected to address this vulnerability with its first upcoming update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a common occurrence for computer enthusiasts to scrutinize and explore the security of newly released hardware. Apple&#8217;s Vision Pro, being the latest technological marvel, was no exception, and vulnerabilities in its system were swiftly discovered. In essence, Vision Pro was hacked on the day of its release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joseph Ravichandran, a PhD student specializing in microarchitectural security at MIT, played a significant role in this discovery. Ravichandran claimed to have identified a critical kernel vulnerability within Vision Pro&#8217;s operating system, known as VisionOS. This vulnerability raises concerns about the device&#8217;s susceptibility to jailbreaking and malware attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vision Pro, jailbreakable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"788\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Apple-Vision-Pro-Hacked-From-Day-One-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Apple Vision Pro Hacked From Day One\" class=\"wp-image-12446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Apple-Vision-Pro-Hacked-From-Day-One-1.jpeg 788w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Apple-Vision-Pro-Hacked-From-Day-One-1-300x291.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Apple-Vision-Pro-Hacked-From-Day-One-1-768x746.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Apple-Vision-Pro-Hacked-From-Day-One-1-150x146.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 788px) 100vw, 788px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As depicted in the photo above, when this vulnerability is exploited, Vision Pro displays a warning message that reads &#8220;Disconnect device&#8221; and &#8220;Your device needs to be restarted.
