According to this website, there is a serious exploit in the BlackBerry that would allow someone to use JavaScript to access the content of the data stored in the built-in storage or media card.
Research in Motion, the maker of the BlackBerry devices, is working on a fix and has not received any reports that content has been accessed using the exploit so far. However, they do recommend caution and disabling JavaScript until the issue can be resolved. The problem is not with JavaScript itself but the exploit makes use of JavaScript in order to access the information on the device.
