I have read in a few reputable and not so reputable lcations that there is a major SMS security flaw in the iPhone 3.X software. It would potentially allow someone to hijack many phone functions including spamming other phones with SMS and infecting them as well. Allegedly this can be done wihout the knowledge of the phone user and without the use visitng any malware infected websites. A few sources indicate that apple is aware of the flaw and have failed to act to fix it for over a month.

I wanted to know if anyone here has head anything about this and if people knwo or think it is a real threat. I can't find a whisper about it on anything officially apple and a few sites I regularly visit which have frequent apple news haven't mentioned this even to dismiss it. anyone have any ideas? Is this a bad Internet rumor or should I be turning off my phone?

Thanks as always, titled comrades.
