Nintendo Switch ships with six-month-old bugs
 
It is almost as if they are not really trying

Nintendo’s new Switch console is shipping with software flaws which are more than six months old.

One developer, who goes by qwertyoruiop on Twitter, has demonstrated that the console ships with months-old bugs in its WebKit browser engine. These bugs allow for arbitrary code execution within the browser.

These bugs attracted attention last year because they were used to hijack an iPhone used by a political dissident in the United Arab Emirates. The bugs could allow attackers to steal call histories, texts, contacts and calendar information, and messages from apps like Gmail and WhatsApp. Apple patched them in iOS 9.3.5 in August of 2016.
