Maybe it would be good to change the title to say `(fixed in iOS 13.3.1)` instead of `(iOS 13.3)`, to make it clear that this is not a zero day.

HN title character limit didn't allow me to.

I've squeezed it in there now at the cost of a little ungrammaticalness.

(Submitted title was "PoC remotely dump memory with no user interaction on iPhone 11 Pro (iOS 13.3)".)

I still see only 13.3, not 13.3.1... could do this:

> Remotely dump memory w/o user interaction on iPhone 11 Pro (fixed iOS 13.3.1)

Thanks, I missed that. I've moved things around a bit.

Good enough :)

It would be nice if they increased the title limit.

Well how would you expect to get any clicks doing that?

It's a bug tracker. Is it ad supported? Would they even want superfluous clicks?

OP want clicks.

Why would I?

What would be the point of getting clicks to a bug tracker which he doesn't own?

Lot of cynicism on HN today :( but I suggest that if someone links to a Project Zero bug about iOS you can pretty much assume it’s been patched, and the OP claims HN title character limit is the true reason for the omission.

If a bug is unpatched I’d actually expect the title to specify that instead...
