Thought this would be of interest and importance to the iPhone users in the community.

Ah so it's the cables that come with the Macbook. I best go check mine and see if I'm affected. Between this and then the travel adapters lately!

Thanks for pointing that up @Anonymous. I read the article so fast I thought it was for iPhones. Don't know if the cables for phones are affected as well, but phone users should check.

Thanks for the heads up @Bambino. One of my family members has a MacBook, not sure of the purchase date but I can pass this info on ...At least the link gives a picture of the affected cable so it will be good to check anyway
