Danish developer discovered a loophole in the phones, "iPhone" allows hackers to conduct telephone numbers private and expensive, without the user's consent or even his knowledge.
It works every time gap and enters the user to the original application, and therefore can double the cost of the phone bill quickly and abruptly.
The developer Andre Nykolasa of the company "airtime" that when a person clicks on a link exists in a telephone native applications, is contacted directly without taking the final approval from the user.
For example, if you work through the application of "Facebook Messenger", and sent you a friend dial his number, a single click can make the connection, and this is what works on the pirates exploit.
Serious about it, is that the language used Nykolasa "Java" so that they can do to connect automatically without clicking on the link number, and thus be made without the user's knowledge.
The developer believes that the best way to solve this problem, lies in changing companies such as "Facebook" and "Google" the way the connection is made via the original applications, so that the user is asked if he intends to make the connection every time someone clicks on a link telephone number.
This is what happened in relation to "Facebook", as it announced an official spokesman that the company is preparing to update the program of talks, in order to prevent hackers from exploiting this loophole.
