Multiple Vulnerabilities - iPhone and iPod Touch

Apple has released security update “APPLE-SA-2009-09-09-1 iPhone OS 3.1 and iPhone OS 3.1.1 for iPod touch” to announce the release of security enhancements to protect all users against multiple vulnerabilities.  The most severe vulnerabilities could result in password/data disclosure.

For a complete description of the vulnerabilities and affected software, refer to  About the security content of iPhone OS 3.1 and iPhone OS 3.1.1 for iPod touch.

AFFECTED SOFTWARE:

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO PROTECT YOUR SYSTEM:

Update your software

1. Do NOT take action if you have a Computer Support Coordinator (CSC); they will apply the update for you or assist in instructing you.

2. If you do not have a CSC or they do not support your iPhone, updates may be obtained through iTunes only.

Installation note:

Since the automatic update process may take up to a week depending on the day that iTunes checks for updates, Apple recommends you manually obtain the update via the "Check for Update" button within iTunes. After doing this, the update can be applied when your iPhone is docked to your computer.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

If you have questions about any of the information provided above, you may send email inquiries to security@ucsf.edu.
