I feel that the second worm will come to iPhone at soon after the first iPhone worm was discovered. With the first time there is a second, that’s is a eternal rules for everything. According to the report, a new malicious worm now is trespassing to the jailbroken iphone which have been installed SSH and not changed the password to collect your online banking credentials and all the cash in the Netherlands. But it will be copy quickly via Wifi. That’s very very fearful. A (H1N1) will break out in iphone area?

That I collected the way to attach a trick for securing your jailbroken iPhone how to changing the root password on iphone.

1. Install the MobileTerminal application from Cydia.
2. Reboot your iPhone.
3. Launch MobileTerminal and type in the command: passwd
4. At the prompt which asks for the “Old Password,” type in: alpine
5. At the new password prompt, type in a new password of your choosing, making sure to pick something strong.
6. Re-enter the password to confirm.
7. You’ll then be returned to the Mobile$ prompt which means the change was successful.
8. Now you’ll need to change the password for the secondary admin. Type in the command login root.
9. Again, you’re prompted for the old password. Type in alpine.
10. Now type in the command passwd
11. You’ll then go through the change password routine a second time, entering in alpine as the old password, creating a new password and then re-entering it to confirm.
12. When you are finished, close the application.
