iPhone can be Hijacked


As you may know, there's a security flaw on the iPhone that allows it to be hijacked via SMS. Once it has been hijacked, your phone can then hijack all other iPhones on your contact list. The flaw is that SMS burst that allow hackers to gain total control over your phone.

Fortunately, according to British iPhone carrier 02, Apple will be issuing an update this weekend to fix an SMS exploit that allows people to hijack your phone. Apple was very quick to fix the problem, but other windows mobile handsets are still vulnerable to a hijacking.
