Piergiorgio Zambrini is an Italian systems engineer and creator of the widely popular Ziphone application. Recently, he discovered a security flaw capable of crashing not only the iPhone, but other Apple devices such as iPods and even computers as well.
The bug involves the audio portion of Apple’s video format and it could crash an Apple device whenever a file utilizing the exploit is played. We aren’t sure about the exact details of the bug because Piergiorgio is keeping quiet. The reason he’s not talking is that he’s applied for a job as an iPhone security engineer at Apple. So in the end, we can expect this bug to be fixed, and with Piergiorgio on the team, we’ll see security beefed up. Thanks!
