Yeah, this isn't new news.
 
It's just a rehash of the recent hardware flaw discovered in Apple
M-series cpus. The biggest risk - although still tiny - from the flaw is
cryptography, hence why the crypto community are concerned.

 
Has nothing to do with iMsg as claimed by the OP.

You're confused by the huge number of Apple zero-day holes, only some of
which are known to be found in Apple's M-series unpatchably flawed chips.

However, it's not yet fully clear that this $2 million iOS zero-day is what
the hackers claim it to be, according to the news that is all over the net.

"It's important to note, as Tech Crunch highlights, that there is currently
no definitive proof of the exploit's existence. The proof is derived from a
dark web advertisement for something called "iMessage Exploit."
