A new report claims that the security flaw in the AirDrop has the potential of exposing the user’s private information&nbsp;to a stranger in their Wi-Fi range. It seems the vulnerability is pretty dangerous for Apple users.

Apple AirDrop s security flaw can leak your private information They elaborated that the AirDrop system has the potential to expose a user’s personal information like phone number and email address to a stranger who is in the Wi-Fi range. They claim, the most dangerous thing about this flaw is that the user does not even need to initiate a file transfer for a stranger to gain access to his/her private information.

An attacker only needs is a Wi-Fi enabled mobile device and proximity to the Wi-Fi range of the victim’s device. The researchers explained that there is currently no workaround to this security flaw which means the only way someone can avoid this information leak is by not using Apple AirDrop till the company comes out with a security fix.
