APPLE-SA-2013-09-26-1 iOS 7.0.2
iOS 7.0.2 is now available and addresses the following:
Passcode Lock Available for: iPhone 4 and later Impact: A person with physical access to the device may be able to make calls to any number Description: A NULL dereference existed in the lock screen which would cause it to restart if the emergency call button was tapped repeatedly. While the lock screen was restarting, the call dialer could not get the lock screen state and assumed the device was unlocked, and so allowed non-emergency numbers to be dialed. This issue was addressed by avoiding the NULL dereference. CVE-ID CVE-2013-5160 : Karam Daoud of PART - Marketing & Business Development, Andrew Chung, Mariusz Rysz
Passcode Lock Available for: iPhone 4 and later, iPod touch (5th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: A person with physical access to the device may be able to see recently used apps, see, edit, and share photos Description: The list of apps you opened could be accessed during some transitions while the device was locked, and the Camera app could be opened while the device was locked. CVE-ID CVE-2013-5161 : videosdebarraquito
Installation note:
This update is available through iTunes and Software Update on your iOS device, and will not appear in your computer's Software Update application, or in the Apple Downloads site. Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes/
iTunes and Software Update on the device will automatically check Apple's update server on its weekly schedule. When an update is detected, it is downloaded and the option to be installed is presented to the user when the iOS device is docked. We recommend applying the update immediately if possible. Selecting Don't Install will present the option the next time you connect your iOS device.
The automatic update process may take up to a week depending on the day that iTunes or the device checks for updates. You may manually obtain the update via the Check for Updates button within iTunes, or the Software Update on your device.
To check that the iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad has been updated:
* Navigate to Settings * Select General * Select About. The version after applying this update will be "7.0.2".
