In the hands of hackers, 4 Apple iPhone and BlackBerry Torch which made ​​by Research In Motion (RIM) is not good enough as we can see from its security. Three researchers from Anon Team has  successfully penetrated the security systems Torch through weaknesses which found in the browser rendering engine, Webkit. They managed to smuggle the program to prove that they are able to exploit a weakness to steal contact lists and database images.

 

Despite many shortcomings, it’s not easy to penetrate the BlackBerry and it’s because there is no documentation for the public about the operating system. Therefore, hackers have to do trial and error techniques to try to penetrate. Webkit is one part of a potential target and Torch is the first BlackBerry device that uses Webkit in its browser. However, the browser still has not completed the address space layout randomization (ASLR) and Data execution prevention (DEP).

 

As for attacking the iPhone 4, hackers also exploit weaknesses in the mobile version of the Safari browser. Charlie Miller, a security researcher managed to smuggle a program to steal a list of contact names. It uses the return-oriented programming techniques (ROP) to bypass DEP. The targets which attacked by hackers were the iPhone 4 that uses operating system IOS 4.2. In the latest IOS version 4.3, the vulnerability is not yet repaired. However, additional ASLR may be able to resist the techniques used to attack.
