iPhone has security patch
Just a few days before the conference of black-hat hackers opened, Apple promptly released the first patch for the iPhone phone.
According to press releases from last week, this "Black Hat" conference will focus on dissecting the vulnerabilities inside the most talked about cell phone security feature.
These include a bug that allows hackers to gain full control of the iPhone through the Web, stealing personal information stored on the device and turning the phone into a source of spreading spam messages.
According to the latest announcement on Apple's official website, from now on, iPhone users will be able to download the V1.0.1 Update software via iTunes. This patch will block some iPhone vulnerabilities in Safari, Webcore and Webkit browsers.
Hot topic of hackers
