I've been doing some reading this weekend, trying to make sense of the bootloader bug implications, and what to tell "regular users" in order to secure their phones. The only big question right now is whether the exploit allows an override of the iCloud lock, therefore opening again a market for stolen iPhones. I'm sure somebody here will be much smarter security-wise than me, so please send me contributions or corrections if there happens to be any mistake!

For those extreme enough who don't want to be vulnerable to this BootROM vulnerability should probably buy or exchange their current iPhone for a refurbished iPhone XR or later at this point if you want to be absolutely sure that you want to be safe for this vulnerability since Apple cannot fix this anyway.
