Google Seals Up Android ‘Jailbreak’ in Automatic Update

It only took Google about three days to recognise , examine and sterilize the vulnerability that allow Android speech sound to be‘jailbroken ’ , and user should see the fix ( update RC30 ) pushed to their phones over the breeze during the next few days . From the back talk of the Google :

We ’ve been apprize of this way out ( Jailbreaking of Android ) and have develop a fix . We ’re presently solve with our better half to push the kettle of fish out and update the clear source code base to ponder these changes .

So what do Android users stand up to lose from this Apple - like vigilance?At present , very minuscule . The so - called ‘ prison-breaking ’ was of a completely unlike nature than the app - enable hack that iPhone users are now so accustomed to . The technique was a telnet whoremaster that let for gentle root accession to the operating system of rules , so the reality of the spot is less like a ‘ jailbreak ’ in the iPhone sense , and more like finding the administrative parole on a background Linux system . The effort did leave more access to the the Android ’s meat functions , some of which could be useful for app development and porting to other sound , but it also break a yaw vulnerability that would be immediately shut on any other Linux statistical distribution . Google ’s patch is most accurately characterized as a protection hole , not a company poop . [ ModMyGphone , XDA — Thanks , Kyle ]
