For people with jailbroken phones who don't want to install Apple's new 4.0.2 update, Cydia now has their own patch for the PDF security hole, just install the package "PDF Patch". You won't need the PDF Warner anymore.

*That's pretty funny, exploit the security hole to jailbreak the phone, then patch it afterwards to protect yourself!
