The iPhone isn’t know to be the most secure smart phone in the world, Apple keeps updated it with new software and the Dev Team just keeps jailbreaking it. Well we have just found out that there is a new security flaw in the iPhone that allows it to be hijacked through SMS. After your iPhone becomes hijacked it can then hijack all the other iPhones on your contact list, then it can take over every iPhone in the world! The security issue has to do with invisible SMS bursts that allow hackers to get control over your iPhone then sends that out to other iPhones. Two guys discovered the issue and will present it at the Black Hat conference on Thursday, they even claim that they told Apple about it a month ago but they never resolved the issue. How do you know when your iPhone has been hijacked via SMS? You will get a text message that contains just a single character, if you do turn off your iPhone asap. Then bring it to Apple and complain to an Apple “genius.”
