Warning! Over 900 Million Android Phones Vulnerable to New 'QuadRooter' Attack

"Android Nexus devices are already patched via the over-the-air updates, but other smartphone models will need to wait until their lazy phone manufacturers integrate the fixes into their own custom Android ROMs."

Just another reason I started buying Google's Nexus branded phones. Faster updates, OS longevity, and smooth operation.

Sounds grim. I have a Droid phone and it's vulnerable according to the scan that I downloaded and ran. Lucky me. And it appears nothing can be done or will be done. I wonder if encrypting all data on the phone at least protects it even though I am still vulnerable to attack.

Havent heard of this one, thanks for posting
