[citation][nom]mbmcavoy[/nom]I don't know if that is a possible attack vector, but I'd be surprised...Anyway, this isn't an "Apple" vulnerability. It only affects those who have1) Jailbroken their iPhone to remove Apple's security provisions2) Installed SSH to allow remote access3) Failed to change the default passwords, against the advice of the jailbreaking community.In other words, the people that want their iPhone to be more like Windows are installing their own security holes...[/citation]
You mean "more like Unix" right? Since, that's what the SSH is a native component of, also what Mac OSX is built from.
It's doing nothing to make it more like Windows. Making it more like Windows would be .. well, installing an NT Kernel.
