Well it happened — the first iPhone update is available! It’s not exactly the major update we’ve been hoping for, rather Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) decided to release the quick Safari fix to make us browse the web more safely. According to their changelog, Safari is now updated to prevent cross-site scripting and arbitrary code execution, WebCore is fixed to deny cross-site requests, and WebKit has improved domain name validity check, as well as unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution bug fixed.

There you have it - web surfing on your iPhone is now more secure than ever. Not that the mentioned bugs actually bothered many of the iPhone users…
