Some of the best MacDirtyCow bug-compatible apps for iOS 15.x-16.1.2
The MacDirtyCow bug, also known as CVE-2022-46689, has opened Pandora’s box for Apple on iOS & iPadOS 15.x-16.1.2 because it allows people to make system customizations on their non-jailbroken iPhones and iPads that they technically shouldn’t be allowed to make.

Ian Beer’s MacDirtyCow bug PoC reveals it’s more powerful than originally thought
By now you’ve probably heard about the MacDirtyCow bug for iOS & iPadOS 16.0-16.1.2.
