The security experts have now found a way to wrest the complete control of these devices. But the sent text messages now have been demonstrated to be the center of attention for the Black Hat security conference in Vegas.

Senior researchers Charlie Miller and Collin Mulliner, have said that the Independent Security researchers of the company, have still not been able to find out what has bugs have been playing to hinder the incapability of these iPhones. As far as security is concerned the bug is being tackled but not entirely set free. Even with six weeks of notice, Apple is yet to seek complete freedom from these issues. Patching up of the iPhone software has been an overall problem.

The nefarious effect of a hacker inside your iPhone will have access to all your SMSs, address information, call logs, etc. The attack is about spreading onwards and so it is being predicted that the bug could catch up within a limited area in a very short span. This could also mean hacking into your internet access, mail account, etc.
