Apple has released a patch this week for the iPhone/iPod Touch that should fix five exploits, a few of which could have allowed remote access to the device in question.
If a user opened an infected audio or image file, or hit a malicious FTP server, hackers could run code remotely, taking control of the device.
Another of the exploits could allow hackers to bypass the password on a locked device, as long as they had access to the actual device.
The update is for those with iPhone OS 3.1.3.
