Making calls with a locked iPhone4 over voice control

[mlalmi31]

Hi guys,

i just have found that i can make calls with my iphone4 (ios 4.1) even when it's locked, all i have to do is to pronounce : call "name in phonebook", or : call "numbers 0 1 4 ... " and the phone will do it

i can also play music with it locked

I think it's a security issue, what do you think ?

You can call but can not browse the contact list.

I suppose this is good in a sense, if you lose your iPhone, someone techy can pull up voice control and call home, so at least you might have a chance at getting your phone back.

Not really a security issue. There is an option in settings to disable this functionality if you don't want it.
