The device "recovering" while entering debug mode on production hardware is the security issue. Fuses are supposed to prevent that. They don’t. That’s the flaw.

If I own an iPhone 15 Pro, how am I impacted by this? Why does this repo say that a hardware recall may be necessary?

If debug logic is still active, attackers with physical access can dump firmware, extract secrets, or bypass protections that should be fused off.

Think: stolen phones, shady repair shops, or border checks — cases where physical access + this flaw = real risk.

That’s why a hardware recall may be necessary... fuses are meant to be irreversible. If they fail, there's no patch.
