To Adan: I’m having the exact same problem. at first i thought it’s a battery problem. then i restored to factory settings and registered as new phone and the problem was resolved. but this proved to be temporary: the worm keeps on appearing a few days later although i haven’t jailbroken my phone anymore. i tried all means to fix the damn thing.

i jailbroke my iphone a few days after blackra1n was released, i did not install SSH and i changed root and mobile password using Terminal
yesterday night before going to bed, i turned off my iphone (battery was 78%) this morning i turned it on and the battery was 8% …. weird, an iphone draining battery while off?
i am not sure if this was caused by this new worm or is related to some battery problem

well im currently restoring

Well, I appear to have gotten the ‘unamed’ worm, as since yesterday the battery started depleting extremely fast (about 1% per minute). Strange thing is, I changed my root password when it was first flagged up a couple of weeks ago.

Also, unlike reported, also affects me when ‘Edge’ is on, as the battery will drain lightning fast even when Wi-fi is turned off.

The best and 100% certain way to not ever be infected..? DO NOT INSTALL OPENSSH. Simple. If you do, you’re the idiot for leaving the password default. Neither PwnageTool nor Blackra1n installs OpenSSH so this is something the iPhone owner willingly installs.
