Vincenzo Iozzo and Ralf Philipp Weinmann succeeded in exploiting the iPhone in the first time slot and getting $15,000 first prize. They exploited a 0day Safari vulnerability with a payload which retrieved the text messages from the device.

With no other input from the user they stole the phone's entire database of sent, received and even deleted text messages in under 20 seconds, boasting that they could easily lift personal contacts, emails and your naughty, naughty photos as well.
