PC World reports that researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute Secure Information Technology in Germany published a paper which describes how someone with malicious intent can easily reveal most of the passwords stored on an iPhone — whether the device itself is password-protected or not — using a process that takes barely more than six minutes to complete.
**First, your iPhone dropped calls like a bad habit. Now, we find out that it takes hackers less than six minutes to make your stolen iPhone reveal all of its passwords. Hope you didn't have any important information stored in there! Props to Apple for creating the least secure mobile device ever conceived by mankind, and a special shout out to the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany for publishing a paper detailing precisely how to expolit this weakness in the iPhone. It's basically How-To guide for criminals. Nice job!
