A largely undocumented vulnerability in wireless phones (cellular phones) involves something called SIS Attachment Exploitation. SIS attachments are the picture and video attachments that can be attached to SMS text messages and sent phone to phone. Because most vendors do not check buffers surrounding this attachment zone, it is easy for an attacker to overflow the buffer and cause arbitrary machine code to be executed. It is for this reason that cellular phones should also never be trusted with sensitive data.
