Seems like android malware is at it again, "godless" strikes and according to news articles 90% of devices are at a risk.
That one is no joke..

Google is going to have to work out a way to back port security updates and OTA them. Right now Google and their OEMs should be embarrassed.

Pathetic

Nice deflection back to iOS only,
iOS 385 + safari 135 = 520, opps! even you can't attempt to spin or deny 520 is less than 419, 24% more.

And thats without counting the other bloat.

And his throwing the Linux kernel in so it's being counted twice.

I dont know why I'm even bothered tbh.
I run iOS and no android at all... but i just don't get this "apple" "head in the sand" despite all the actual facts. It's pure mindless fanboyism.

Not that it means "anything" as you could have the worst platform in the world and as long as you are not stupid it doesn't mean you are going to have data stolen or compromised. It's a list of vulnerabilities...

The vast majority of people don't get monthly security updates, and despite having 6.0.1, don't have fixes for well known security problems.

Ridiculous.

And above I already showed a zero day vulnerability for iOS 9.3.3

In the US you guys may not receive the patches on time but in Europe and other
Other countries where carriers dont screw with consumers we do get the updates on time

Again I am talking about flagships not budget phones.My Nexus recives all updates on time
Coming from who this comes, I'm not surprised.

SLOW IS NOT LAG. ANY DEVICE THAT OLD IS SLOW.


Haha.You mean to tell me a 5 second delay where the phone hangs for 5 seconds is not lag?Maybe in an alternate dimension
That is not a zero day exploit as much as a jailbreak requiring itunes.
Stop nitpicking.Jailbreaking is done by exploiting a vulnerability in the OS.

iOS 9.3.3 was successfully exploited

Did you read your own article? This is an unfortunate proof of concept for a jail break and cannot happen on the phone therefore it was not exploited. And Apple killed it for iOS 10.

Or are you trolling?

No, it's not a deflection, the iOS section counts all the Safari vulns.

Like this:

http://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2015-7103/

You're counting duplicate entries.

Proving you're completely wrong from the beginning.

What are you saying?

Find me a Linux vulnerability that's being counted on the "Android" section.

And above I already showed a zero day vulnerability for iOS 9.3.3

That vulnerability can't do anything.

In the US you guys may not receive the patches on time but in Europe and other
Other countries where carriers dont screw with consumers we do get the updates on time

What are you really saying?

In the Europe is the same thing, and Android users have to wait a long time for carriers to "update" their bloatware.

Even the big top of the range brands don't give the necessary updates (Samsung, LG, etc.)

Which 5 seconds lag?

Lag is the time difference between the the input to be registered by the software.

WTF.

Do Android or any other smartphones don't have to wait?

Apple's so called security breaks..... AGAIN.But hey Android is a toxic hell stew of vulnerabilities in Timmy's words

Do you understand this is social engineering and not hacking? It's akin to leaving the keys to your door under the mat, having a thief find them, enter your house. You then blame the lock manufacturers.

That's what you did, again, try to blame Apple when its people's ignorance about appropriate online security.

There are no known hacks against iCloud with 2fa.

And in other news a new zero day android vulnerability just popped up.
