Developer Charlie Miller has discovered a security flaw in Apple’s iOS devices, he did this by submitting an application to Apple’s app store, the app was then able to exploit a Javascript exception in apple’s mobile Safari.
The exception allowed the download of malicious code after the application was installed on iOS devices, and Apple has now removed him from their iOS developer program.
It hardly surprising that he has been removed from Apple’s developer program, as he submitted an application to Apple, got it approved, and then made it available via the app store, that was able to exploit Apple’s mobile Safari, therefore breaking the developer terms and conditions.
