It also works for people. Families can track each other&#8217;s whereabouts for safety reasons, and friends can tell when others are hanging out without them.<\/p>\n<p>In typical Apple fashion, though, the full Find My experience is limited to Apple hardware, like an iPhone or Mac. iBiz also offers Find Devices via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/security\/2025\/02\/24\/apple-ends-icloud-advanced-data-protection-for-uk-customers\/588745\">iCloud<\/a> website, although it lacks Find My\u2019s people-tracking feature for viewing locations others have shared with you.<\/p>\n<p> However, the 22-year-old researcher, who goes by \u201cZerotistic,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/zerotistic.blog\/posts\/find-my-people-linux\/#fetching-and-decrypting-the-location\">devised a way<\/a> to enroll a Linux-based machine into the iNetwork, tricking Apple into sending the people-location data it exclusively reserves for Apple devices.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note, at this point, that this is not an exploit that allows anyone to arbitrarily retrieve any Apple user&#8217;s location. It refers to registering a non-Apple device to the Find My network and retrieving the location data of people who had already chosen to share their locations with the Apple account owner.<\/p>\n<p>Retrieving people-location data requires Apple to trust that the machine you\u2019re using belongs to its network and is capable of receiving the data, which is sent over Apple\u2019s Push Notification service (APNs).<\/p>\n<p>The first step was tying the Linux machine to the researcher\u2019s Apple account. Zerotistic obtained an identity delegate by going through Apple\u2019s standard GrandSlam authentication protocol. In pursuit of an Apple Identity Services (IDS) device certificate, which links the intended device to an Apple Account, they then used that delegate to build a custom certificate signing request (CSR).<\/p>\n<p>Lots of trial and error later, Zerotistic discovered that the CSR had to use the PKCS#10 format and a 2048-bit RSA key signed using SHA-1, linking the Linux machine to their Apple account. They bundled this up into a compressed XML file and sent it to Apple\u2019s authenticateDS profile-enrollment endpoint.<\/p>\n<p>The SHA-1 signature requirement and XML encoding were surprises. The researcher\u2019s \u201cbest guess\u201d is that the CSR had to conform to older standards because authenticateDS is a legacy endpoint.<\/p>\n<p>Apple signed the CSR, handing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/os-platforms\/2026\/08\/17\/linux-72-debuts-linus-torvalds-says-new-normal-means-he-had-to-do-it-now-or-never\/5288250\">Linux<\/a> device the IDS certificate needed to register its public key to the researcher\u2019s Apple account.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Linux device was registered at this point, but further work was needed to convince Apple that it was capable of running Find My.<\/p>\n<div data-element-guid=\"afe083ca-6701-48e9-9bd8-f8827dd7fb42\" class=\"lab4 column articleList layout_vertical imageLayout_left small-12 large-4 small-abs-12 large-abs-4 abs_grid_4 desktop-floatLeft mobile-floatLeft grid-vas-start mobile-grid-vas-start\">\n<div class=\"content border_width_0 border_width_mobile_0 border-radius-48 border-radius-mobile_48\">\n<h2 class=\"article-list-title t19 font-RobotoCondensed\">MORE CONTEXT<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Zerotistic found that a Find My registration request required the device to subscribe to six different subservices, define the types of encryption it supported, and provide the public keys to support Apple\u2019s device-to-device messaging format. It also had to be signed using an IDS certificate and an APNs certificate obtained during initial network setup.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, the researcher had enrolled the Linux machine in an Apple account and convinced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/security\/2021\/05\/12\/apples-find-my-network-can-be-abused-to-leak-secrets-to-the-outside-world-via-passing-devices\/1310399\">Find My<\/a> that it was capable of receiving location data via a persistent binary TLS connection to Apple\u2019s private APNs servers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, this registration did not automatically retrieve the location data of people who had previously shared their locations with Zerotistic, as a box-fresh Apple device would after setup.<\/p>\n<p>Issuing a SubscribeAndFetch request fixed this, prompting the device of the researcher\u2019s friend to push an encrypted location key to the newly registered Linux device.<\/p>\n<p>The final challenge was reading the location data the Linux device fetched from Apple\u2019s SearchParty service. Zerotistic was not simply using the GUI Find My app on Linux; they were receiving the encrypted data and had to figure out how to unpack the location message.<\/p>\n<p>This required a Linux script to unwrap Apple\u2019s messaging envelope, extract the shared location key, and decrypt the Find My location data, which is comprised of coordinates, timestamps, and accuracy information.<\/p>\n<p>Once developed, the script could fetch and decode subsequent location reports for the existing location share.<\/p>\n<p>It took the researcher less than a week of tinkering to develop the Find My-busting technique, they said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"italic m-italic \" data-lab-italic=\"italic\">The Register<\/span> asked Apple if it was aware of the researcher\u2019s work and if it had any plans to address the issue, but it did not immediately respond. \u00ae<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/image.theregister.com\/?imageId=5290528&#038;width=800\">READ MORE <a
