Apple has released the iPhone 1.1.1 update, which contains, in addition to bug fixes and improvements for the phone itself, ten security fixes. This update corrects vulnerabilities in the phone’s Bluetooth software, its Mail software, and a vulnerability that could cause you to unwittingly dial numbers that arrive in your e-mail or that are displayed on web pages with “tel:” phone number links. Other fixes patch weaknesses in Safari and JavaScript. Make sure to update your iPhone immediately, using iTunes – if you’re a Mac user, iPhone updates don’t appear in the Software Update preference pane.

Note that reports say that some “unlocked” phones – those iPhones that have been hacked to work with carriers other than AT&T – do not work after the update. If you’ve hacked your iPhone in this manner, use at your own risk.

You can get more information and details about all the security fixes on this Apple web page.
