iPhone could be a spy tool?

Oops, the cracked-iPhone could be a spy tool: an exploit application can record conversations on and near the iPhone. How could?
A US security consultant has used a security-testing tool to crack the iPhone. The exploit allows a hacker to control an iPhone remotely.
Farrow demonstrated how he used HD Moore’s Metasploit tool to gain root access to the iPhone and install an application that can record conversations on and near the iPhone, transforming the device into a spy tool. It also allowed him to remotely access recently modified files, locally stored emails and view the iPhone’s web-browsing history.
