iOS is mainly known for its security and the exciting features. Recently a major flaw was found in Apple's iOS 7. Berlin's Security Research Labs, known as SRL, founded the flaw in apple's "Find My Phone" service.
SRL security researcher's says that the bug is easy to exploit also could potentially give criminals/theif enough time to break into iPhones, and gain complete control of user's data and access email accounts.

Apple will fix this new iOS flaw soon in their next update. Until then make sure you've locked your apple device with Touch ID or the Passcode also don’t lose your apple device, Obviously. Otherwise you won’t be able to track it.
