Does iOS 5 have a SSL security bug that got patched on iOS 6/7?

Apple released iOS 7.0.6 and 6.1.6 to patch a specific SSL/TLS security bug.

I can't find anything official about iOS 5. Does iOS 5 have the same bug?

Please cite your answer.


ZDNet says :

iOS 5 and Mac OS X 10.8 never had the bug


Same manual test with gotofail.com

  • iOS 4.1 = Safe
  • iOS 5.1.1 = Safe
  • iOS 6.1.3 = Vulnerable
  • iOS 7.0.4 + (SSLPatch) = Safe :)

According to SSLPatch you are vulnerable from iOS 6.0 to iOS 6.1.5 and from iOS 7.0 to iOS 7.0.5.


You can visit gotofail.com from Safari in iOS 5 and check yourself.
