NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- A day after AT&T fessed up to its iPad 3G customers about a security breach, the hackers that exploited the vulnerability<http://money.cnn.com/2010/06/09/technology/iPad_email_breach/index.htm?postversion=2010061009> in AT&T's website said there are still lurking security problems related to the iPad. In a blog post, hacker group Goatse Security said Monday that a "skilled attacker" could take advantage of a weakness in the iPad's Safari Internet browser. The browser's bug could potentially allow someone to gain unwanted access to a user's iPad when that user clicks a malicious link. Looks like we could be seeing the fruition of Apple's increasing footprint on the web as it relates to their lack of security...or rather that their programmers are human beings after all and not angelic code machines who don't make mistakes. But then those who thought about it for more than three seconds knew this was the case. In either case, looks like Apple users will be seeing an increase in security updates for their mobile devices. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
