Apple's letter d is not always d

Αν και οι περισσότεροι χρήστες της Apple εγκαθιστούν άμεσα τις ενημερώσεις, υπάρχει πάντα και μια εξαίρεση. Αν είστε ένας από από αυτούς που δεν ενημερώνουν τις συσκευές τους, θα πρέπει να γνωρίζετε ότι το γράμμα "d" δεν είναι πάντα το γράμμα "d" όταν εμφανίζεται στη γραμμή διευθύνσεων του .

It may not sound serious to you, but it is a very important problem because it can lead you to adventures according to various security researchers.Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),

IDN homogeneity attacks can occur if you write a domain name with Unicode characters that resemble typical Latin letters, but they are not.
These domains are used for phishing, and they deceive users to think they have access to a regular site instead of a cleverly created clone.

Xisigr, a researcher s in Tencent Security Xuanwu Lab, he discovered how they manage them Apple's Unicode characters.

This, which he found the researcher is that Apple has done a good job with most Unicode characters, except one that is letter letter (ꝱ) (U + A771).

Ο χαρακτήρας μοιάζει με ένα κανονικό γράμμα 'd', εκτός από το ότι διαθέτει και μια χαμηλότερη απόστροφο. Ο xisigr λοιπόν ανακάλυψε ότι ο Safari δεν εμφάνιζε την αποστρόφο, αλλά έδειχνε το γράμμα dum ως το λατινικό γράμμα d.

The researcher reported his findings to Apple, which released security updates in July on Safari, and the software for iOS, macOS, tvOS and watchOS.
