"iOS Trustjacking is a vulnerability that can be exploited by an attacker to read messages and emails and capture sensitive information such as passwords and banking credentials from a remote location without a victim’s knowledge. This vulnerability exploits the “iTunes Wi-Fi Sync” feature whereby a victim connects his/her phone to any trusted computer (could be of a friend or any trusted entity) that is already infected by the attacker."
