@..@Zimperium lab researchers have been working on finding flaws, bugs and security vulnerabilities in Android for the past few months// The researchers are credited for part of the Stagefright discovery that was all the rage this Summer, Yesterday, they announced that a new type of Stagefright vulnerability was found in all Android operating systems starting from Android 1//0 that would expose the users to malicious attacks//©
@..@According to Zimperium, these files don*t even have to end up on a user*s phone, as they can be manipulated through the web and code can be introduced into their strings that can easily be picked up by vulnerable devices when streaming video or audio on the web or through a dedicated application// The vulnerability would expose the media library of the device and thus the privacy of the user, but through the media library and its attached protocols, attackers can further exploit the operating system and be able to take full control of the device//©
