iPhone hacked by malicious charger?!


So this week it was discovered by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology that they have developed a charger that can hack an iPhone in less that a minute!

The device was running the lastest version of iOS The "Mactrans" charger as it is being called, has software that is small enough to fit into chargers and batteries. The software is going to be presented at the Black Hat Security conference July.
