Major security flaw

[userbOCk161Mof]

Uh oh. Samsung are not secure and they are doing very little about it. Samsung says there is a major vulnerability that is being exploited in the wild right now but they are making everyone wait a whole month to get it fixed. Samsung should be releasing an out of band patch for this.

Aww shoot all our data prob gone already then.... 🤦 seems like data is like gold these days and securing it makes you the gold mine.

Man, did you even read the article you linked? Samsung is rushing out the patch and we're getting it before the android 15 update, meaning that samsung phones will be getting the security patch before any other Android devices. You make it sound like they're being lacksidasical when they're actually being more proactive than anyone else

That still means waiting a month to get a critical security patch. Google would have released an out of band patch in the same month for such a serious issue.

My iPhone is hacked esim cloned framing me criminally and ip address in Florida I'm louisiana and so much more now I think my mother's samsung is having off issues any suggestions?

It's literally impossible to clone an eSIM unless the phone was stolen. Somebody needs to have physical access to your phone to hack or clone an eSIM.

Just my opinion while it would be nice to get patches or fixes fast it's not always possible as they have to more or less test and develop the fix
