By Mike Keller - 3:49PM EST Late last week, an Australian hacker dubbed *ikee* deployed the Rickrolling<http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/pcworld/tc_pcworld/storytext/newmalwareaffectsjailbrokeniphones/34049801/SIG=12k735i1h;_ylt=Apmr3Lt.AQKSx7Jf4XaXI1fiS5A5/*http://www.pcworld.com/article/181748/iphone_worm_rickrolls_jailbroken_phones.html>worm– a harmless and humorous worm that installs a picture of 80’s one hit wonder Rick Astley<http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/pcworld/tc_pcworld/storytext/newmalwareaffectsjailbrokeniphones/34049801/SIG=11cve8ued;_ylt=Ao7W52F.MAqFCfBnASsuLeziS5A5/*http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOU8GIRUd_g>to affected users’ home screens. *Rickrolling* serves not so much as malware but as a warning to jailbreak users who have installed SSH in order to gain root access to their iPhone’s file system from the internet but have neglected to change the default password, even though not doing so is clearly warned against in the installation documentation. To the few users yet to heed the warning presented by *ikee*, it might be a good time to go ahead Intego<http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/pcworld/tc_pcworld/storytext/newmalwareaffectsjailbrokeniphones/34049801/SIG=1374mqsol;_ylt=As8_XWPVwGxUMKLR1J_NqqjiS5A5/*http://blog.intego.com/2009/11/11/intego-security-memo-hacker-tool-copies-personal-info-from-iphones/>reported the discovery of a much more harmful piece of malware that affects jailbroken iPhones and permeates in the same fashion as the *Rickrolling*worm. Once again exploiting the fact that many users who install SSH on their iPhones fail to change the default password, the *iPhone/Privacy.A *worm quietly copies personal information from an afflicted device and spreads itself to other unsecured iPhones on the same network. Unlike *Rickrolling, *which announces itself by changing the wallpaper, this worm gives no indication when a device has been infected. Since an unchanged SSH password grants root file system access, *iPhone/Privacy.A* has the potential to access any file stored on an affected iPhone- including, but not limited to e-mails, text messages, photos, music, videos and calendars. This news shouldn’t be read as a chastisement of jailbreaking but rather a reminder to use common sense. Especially when it comes to installing hackish software, know what you’re getting yourself into, and always read the docs.
