Spoofing security flaw in IOS allows 5

 Fallo de seguridad permite Spoofing en iOS 5

IOS can boast of being one of the most secure mobile operating systems, but recently found a flaw that allows spoofing in IOS and IOS 5 5.1.

It is a problem when using JavaScript URLs windows.open (), ie when you open a new tab, you see your URL you're browsing in the address bar but in reality the page you're not the one put in it, so you can be tricked into giving bank details or passwords.

The discoverers have alerted Apple and they say they are working on an upgrade of IOS to close this security hole. If you can see a demo by clicking here from your iPhone , you will be redirected to a website that looks like Apple but it is not.
