Experts Not Surprised By iPhone Malicious App Report

Malicious iPhone apps that Apple unwittingly approves could attack even
non-jailbroken iPhones, according to a developer, but security experts say this
isn't earth-shattering news.

"If you understand the way the security of the iPhone works, I don't think
this is a surprise," said Charlie Miller, an analyst at Independent Security
Evaluators who in July demonstrated an SMS vulnerability that could let hackers
take over the phone.
