"People should call whoever sold them their phone, their operator or the manufacturer, and beg them for the patches," said Mr Shaulov.

Checkpoint has created a free app called QuadRooter Scanner that can be used to check if a phone is vulnerable to any of the bugs, by looking to see if the patches for them have been downloaded and installed.

Thanks for the info.

Now, how about the cellphone company give us the patch to gedt rid of all those ‘apps’ that come with the phone that we don’t use, and they tell us there is nothing they can do about it???

Could this ‘demand the patch’ also be used as a backdoor entrance of ‘apps’ that the government wants to put on your phone, and not tell you about??

I do not keep records on the phone, nor ‘save’ passwords in my laziness, nor keep any kind of documents or photos. it is a phone, maybe fancier, maybe expensive and foisted upon me because all the snowflakes use them, but it is just a phone.

"I'm pretty sure you will see these vulnerabilities being used in the next three to four months," said Michael Shaulov, especially since we have announced it now, have fun ...

However, there is no evidence of the vulnerabilities currently being used in attacks by cyberthieves.

Right. Like there's no evidence anyone hacked Mrs. Bill Clinton's private email server.

Android IS a bug!

I have never seen an OS cobbled together so badly as Android.
