There’s a bug in Apple’s iOS 5 that would allow anyone to look into your photos without using a password—users would only have to click on the camera button on your iPhone to access all the images.

Sounds bad, right? I wouldn’t worry about it if I were you. You see, scary headlines aside, this bug probably won’t ever won’t affect you. 

The bug only works to allow you to see the camera roll while the phone is locked only if you manually set the date on your phone back.

However, in order to set the date back you have to unlock the phone so it’s not really much of a security risk unless you’re in the habit of changing the date on your phone for no reason
