Apple issued a patch on Tuesday for the iPhone and iPod Touch that plugs five holes, including several that could allow an attacker to take control of the device remotely.
Three of the vulnerabilities could allow someone to run code remotely, if an iPhone or iPod Touch user opened malicious audio or image files, or accessed a malicious FTP server, Apple said.
Another vulnerability could allow someone with physical access to one of the devices to bypass the passcode on a locked device and access the data.
