## What it is
A Python proof-of-concept tool that brute-forces AppleID passwords via the Find My iPhone service API, which lacked bruteforce protection. It was patched by Apple and the tool is no longer functional.

## Use cases
- brute force an AppleID password
- test password guessing against Find My iPhone API
- study how bruteforce protection gaps are exploited
- demonstrate password policy weaknesses with common leaked passwords

## When to choose
- studying historical credential-stuffing or bruteforce techniques
- security research on patched API vulnerabilities

## When to avoid
- any actual password cracking today - the vulnerability is patched
- production security testing
- legal environments where such testing is prohibited

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: abandoned
- function: security, penetration-testing
- domain: security, penetration-testing
- platform: python, cli, cross-platform
- tags: bruteforce, appleid, password-cracking, proof-of-concept, find-my-iphone
