Sao Paulo – A flaw found in software (iOS) iPhone and iPad could allow attackers to build applications that can, without fanfare, install programs that steal data, send text messages and destroy information.

The researcher Charlie Miller of Accuvant Labs, is a security specialist for Apple devices and identified the problem (see video below). In 2009 he also identified a bug in the system of text messages from the iPhone and allow criminals to remotely control the smartphone. At the time Apple was notified and worked to correct the problem.

This time, Miller built the prototype with a malicious program to test the crash, because Apple knows how to check all applications before you allow them in the App Store. And according to the researcher, the company did not identify their malicious program.

He created an application to monitor the stock exchange (InstaStock), which was scheduled to connect your server once it was downloaded. Thus, he could remotely install any app you wanted.

There is no evidence that any hacker has exploited a vulnerability in iOS. However, when notified of the problem, deleted the Apple App Store application and ordered the developer of its developer program.

Miller also reported that this will demonstrate in detail during your search Syscan 11 security conference to be held in Taiwan next week.
