Apple Plugs iOS PDF Hole With 4.0.2. Update

by Terrence O'Brien on August 11, 2010 at 04:11 PM

iPhone Update Alert
It was only about a week ago that the Web-based JailbreakMe iPhone hack started setting off security alarm bells across the Internet. So, color us shocked that Apple, not usually known for its swift release of security patches, released iOS 4.0.2 for the iPhone and 3.2.2 for the iPad today, sealing up that bug for good. Disabling the exploit used by JailbreakMe is the only change to this version of iOS -- effectively killing this jailbreak method -- so don't expect any other improvements to your iDevice experience.
