The San Bernadino phone was running iOS 9. (It's reasonable to assume that if there was a vulnerability in 8.x, Apple would want to have fixed it in 9.)

- camillomiller 11y agoCellebrite is a multinational with lots of resources. I would expect they already had some solution for iOS 9 devices in the pipeline, which was not ready to be made into a public product yet. Nonetheless they were more than happy to field test it with the San Bernardino terrorist's phone. DISCLAIMER: That's my speculation, based on my own coverage of the whole Apple-FBI thing.
- LeifCarrotson 11y agoBut the San Bernardino phone did not have the secure enclave that new iOS 9 devices have. If the vulnerability is unworkable on devices with the secure enclave, well, they've already fixed it.
