Security Wonks Urge iPhoners to Patch 'Em Up


The iOS vulnerability for which Apple issued a security patch on July 25 is very severe, according to security experts who are warning iOS device users to apply that patch as soon as possible. The vulnerability lies in a failure to validate SSL certificates correctly. That lets hackers use a tool called "sslsniff" to take over victims' iOS devices by using fake certificates.
