Wow, that seems really obfuscatory. It's implausible that they only have a vulnerability to iPhone devices, but I guess that's the line of argumentation they'd use to limit the fallout. Sucks to be cellebrite.

I think it's related to the stolen Apple DLLs in their product. Any competent legal department would tell them to remove those immediately, because you don't want to get in a lawsuit with Apple over such a clear case.

  It does seem very clearly a permissible use. Corellium beat Apple's copyright claims and they did far more than just embed a DLL.

    That is incorrect, Corellium does not ship Apple code.

      My understanding was that the copyright portion of the suit was over them doing exactly that? Maybe running it in the cloud vs shipping it, but e.g. https://techcrunch.com/2020/12/29/apples-lawsuit-against-corellium-has-been-partly-thrown-out/ https://techcrunch.com/2020/12/29/apples-lawsuit-against-cor... mentions iOS IPSW files. Edit: it seems like they downloaded the file from Apple's site. The order says using the IPSW file was fair use, and that doesn't appear to depend on them downloading it vs shipping it. I don't think that makes a different. The cellebrite usage is also fair use for the same reasons (doesn't compete with Apple, transformative usage, etc)
