Previously, all Apple owners happy thieving, when again all Windows PCs have been hit by viruses, Trojans and Co., in the system because there are just too many vulnerabilities. But now it seems even with Apple's new flagship the iPhone problems with the security to give. That allowed the company Security Evaluators identify security vulnerabilities that would allow it to spy data. The security breach occurs in the interaction between the iPhone's Safari browser and wireless functionality.

Precise problem is the saved SSID of the WLAN access points, which is used to enable a direct Wiedereinwal. It creates an attacker a wireless access point to configure it to use an already registered SSID, the iPhone would log on directly to this Access Point. This malicious code could be introduced if a malicious site is accessed via this wireless connection.

The vulnerabilities could allow sensitive data such as SMS, e-mail address or password entries spy. There is also the risk that applications should be submitted to fee-based services without the knowledge of the user.
As it is, Apple has been informed of the vulnerability is, however, when it reacts is not yet clear. For all users of Apple iPhones, this means that Apple = safely and Microsoft can = vulnerability no longer be maintained.
