Samsung has release on the fault that affects Exynos terminals running Android. Several million mobile owners are concerned and expect a patch with great impatience. Korean done faster.
Terminals running the Exynos chip series 4 are affected by this vulnerability. It therefore affects the Note, Note 2, S3, S2 (except GT-i9100G), the More Tab and Galaxy Note 10.1. This problem is quite annoying since the root is accessible via any application. Samsung has been notified and a spokesman told the press that the company was aware of the fault occurring on the terminal "Samsung is aware of the potential safety issue related to Exynos processor." Korean is already working since patch should be shared as soon as possible. Samsung said via a press release "The question arises only if a malicious application is used on the affected devices."
Temporary patches
It is therefore recommended to be careful when downloading applications. Use platforms that offer legitimate applications with authenticated sources. This will limit the problems pending official patch from Samsung. This indicates that it "will continue to monitor the situation until the patch has been made available to all devices." An update should be released on Smartphones Exynos covered by this vulnerability. Caution is therefore needed and do not be fooled by applications that look real when they are malicious. In fact, the news is full of such situations, if you download an application on Google Play verify that originates from the good editor.
This vulnerability was revealed by a member of XDA-Developers forum. This suggests also a temporary fix. Many solutions have been shared on the Internet.
