Apple Patch PDF Vulnerability with iOS 4.0.2 (3.2.2 for iPad)

[Synaesthesia]

Well this is good because it was a way for anyone to basically get root access to any iOS device and have potentially full control of the device, via a maliciously crafted email attachment, webpage or even any link, eg an SMS which you tap on! Scary stuff!

On the downside this does block the jailbreak, which was the only one available for the iPhone 4. Too bad.
