iPhone's fingerprint sensor hacked already.

Well, people were sceptical about it to begin with, and it looks like they had reason to be. Only two days after the iPhone 5S's launch, the fingerprint sensor has been fooled by Chaos Computer Club. 

 

There have also been other security issues with iOS7 shortly after it's launch. Apple isn't doing too well.

'hacked'

Yeah, it doesn't really sound right. 'Bypassed' might be a better word. However, it still fits the definition of a hack.
