Apple Thoughts: Safari Along With iPhone OS Fail at Pwn2Own Contest

"Virtually every major browser and operating system were targets at this week's "Pwn2Own" hacking contest, with Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer 8 vulnerabilities exploited, along with flaws in the iPhone OS."

Once again, first day of competition and Safari along with Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox all failed to foil the hackers. A pair from Germany was also able to get access to a non-jailbroken iPhone to run unauthorized code and unlock the iPhone for use on unapproved carriers. You can read more about it at the CanSecWest site. Luckily they only reveal how they do it to the software companies so they can put in a fix.
