Apple's Touch ID is Still Vulnerable to Faked Fingerprints

Security on the Apple Touch ID fingerprint reader of the iPhone 6 has only been marginally tightened and it's still vulnerable to a simple fake fingerprint hack, reports Marc Rogers, chief security researcher at Lookout Mobile Security.

"I don't think people need to worry just yet, but there are distinct flaws that could lead to problems down the line, he told CNET. Rogers used the same low-budget technique to fake fingerprints and unlock the iPhone 6 as he demonstrated previously on the iPhone 5S.
"Sadly there has been little in the way of measurable improvement in the sensor between these two devices," he wrote. "Fake fingerprints created using my previous technique were able to readily fool both devices."
