Facebook allows its authentication credentials to be stored in plain text within the Apple iOS version of its mobile app. This effectively gives another user access to your account, profile and all on that iOS device. Facebook has responded that this issue only applies to compromised or jailbroken devices.

Facebook says there’s no way to fix this problem.
