iPhone TIPS: How To Change SSH 'alpine' Pass to Block Worm

Posted: 08 Nov 2009 08:33 AM PST


Today a First iPhone Worm is reported by Sophos with the following characteristics:
"Users of jailbroken iPhones in Australia are reporting that their wallpapers have been changed by a worm to an image of '80s pop icon Rick Astley. This is the first time a worm has been reported in the wild for the Apple iPhone. According to a report by Sophos, the worm, which exploits users who have installed SSH and not changed the default password, hunts for other vulnerable iPhones and infects them. Users are advised to properly secure their jailbroken iPhones with a non-default password, and Sophos says the worm is not harmless, despite its graffiti-like payload:"
Q: How to change the dedault password? A: Simple, if you are on a Jailbroken iPhone, make sure that you immediately change your iPhone password from 'alpine' to something else. Here is how to change your iPhone password via OpenSSH with the following instruction:
  • Install MobileTerminal.app on your iPhone via Cydia.
