Apple iPhone v1.0.1 Update Now Available

Posted by kdawson on from the more-better-security dept.

The Webguy writes "Apple has released the first update for the iPhone. Updated components in the v1.0.1 update include Safari, the WebCore, and the WebKit. Quoting from the Apple Knowledge Base, the 'update is only available through iTunes, and will not appear in your computer's Software Update application, or on the Apple Support Downloads site.'" One source speculated that Apple wanted to get fixes in users' hands ahead of the Black Hat conference where details of early iPhone vulnerabilities could be revealed.

    Oh, and this time, please don't use Wingdings in the footnotes. I can't tell you how disorienting it is to find a jogging man icon be used as a marker in the middle of a rant.
