    Default iPhone Root Password Cracked

    We managed to obtain and crack the hashs of the user passwords for the iPhone OS. More information could be found at our development Wiki here (link removed).

    Edit: cause you digg people broke the poor wiki:

    The password for root is "alpine"
    The "mobile" user accounts password is "dottie"

    Is it sick to have root pasword to all iPhones worldwide? Well not really, there is no terminal yet to login

    The root password is only DES, took 15 secs with John to break both hashs. Once the hashs can be somehwo obtained -> broken.
    And I doubt you can change the password of the "mobile" user without break somthing in the frontend GUI.
    Anyways, currently this is not a risk as noone can access a shell in the phone
