A bug in the beta of iOS 13 and iPadOS allows access to passwords without authenticating

When we say that it is better not to install trial versions of iOS or macOS on everyday devices, it is for things like this. Although it is normal to find errors and errors in the betas, some may jeopardize our security and privacy exposing data as sensitive as usernames and passwords.

As easy as pressing a few times in the 'Passwords for websites and apps' menu

If you have installed the third beta for developers or the second public beta of iOS 13, you may be interested to know that it is very easy to access the login credentials of websites and applications that you store on your iPhone or iPad. You do not have to be a genius to overcome the security of Face ID or Touch ID in the section 'Web and app passwords' in the Settings.

YouTube channel iDeviceHelp has published a video in which it exposes a bug that is very easy to access usernames and passwords on devices with the latest betas of iOS 13. You just have to click repeatedly on the 'Passwords for websites and apps' section so that authentication by Face ID or Touch ID disappears.

Although it is a serious problem, there is no reason to be alarmed. As 9to5Mac points, to get to that menu first you have to unlock the device with the security method available to our Apple smartphone or tablet.

Apple is already aware of the situation and is quite I will probably put a solution in the next beta version, which should be said that it should not take long to appear because the last one was published on Tuesday, July 2.
