How to Fix the Bluebox Security Exploit that Affects 99% of Android Users

Security researchers recently discovered a major vulnerability in the Android operating system that affects 99% of all Android users. Google already addressed the security exploit back in February of 2013, although they didn’t totally fix the problem.

Today, 99% of all Android users continue to be at-risk of the Bluebox Master Key security exploit, which allows hackers to hijack legitimate apps and transform them into evil apps that perform evil deeds – like steal your information and hack your social media accounts.

The problem with Android security exploits is that Google can’t singlehandedly release an update and spread that update to all the millions of Android users around the world. Instead, it falls to the OEMs to release Android updates for specific devices, which can create headaches for users on obscure devices from lazy OEMs.

Instead of waiting for your OEM to fix the exploit, why not fix the problem today? A third-party has released a simple app that instantly patches the security exploit.
