AirDrop and Quick Share Flaws Let Nearby Attackers Trigger Crashes and Bypass Checks

Researchers have discovered critical vulnerabilities in Apple's AirDrop and Android's Quick Share features that allow nearby attackers to crash devices and bypass security checks. The flaws affect the file-sharing systems that millions of users rely on daily, potentially enabling malicious actors within wireless range to disrupt device functionality. Both Apple and Google will need to issue patches to address these proximity-based attack vectors.
