According to reports from Project zeroa team that specializes in security flaws in Google18 new vulnerabilities in family chipsets Samsung Exino have been discovered. Four are considered high-risk and could hit several recently launched smartphones such as pixel 6 This 7, galaxy s22 and others. Smart watch and other wearables were similarly affected.
Smartwatches and other wearable devices have been similarly affected.
Security breaches were observed between the end of last year and early 2023. Samsung straightaway. The South Korean has released several updates aimed at fixing gaps; however, manufacturers and developers must apply patches, but various distribution schemes make it difficult to quickly implement, and some people remain unprotected until the post date of this question.
Based on reports from Project zerothese devices are affected:
- Samsung smartphones: S22, M33, M13, M12, A71, A53, A33, A21, A13, A12 and A04;
- Smartphones from Chinese Vivo: S16, S15, S6, X70, X60 and X30;
- Smartphones Google Pixel 6 This pixel 7;
- equipped wearable devices with Exynos W920 and T5123 chipsets.
Google and Samsung work to mitigate security breaches
Google This Samsung, as mentioned earlier, are working to minimize customer issues. A pixel line received updates in early March, but models from other companies are still waiting for correction. The South Korean is analyzing his options and said that the disconnection of calls through WiFi This come back it may be enough to narrow the scope of the violations until everything is fixed for good.
Samsung said disabling calls over Wi-Fi and VoLTE could be enough to narrow down loopholes until things are fixed for good.
Attacks can happen by phone number person. Smartphones of both high and middle class, with Exynos chips, susceptible. It is not yet known how companies will behave in this situation.
TO four major weaknesses security features allow attackers to remotely execute code on machines even if the user is not interacting directly. A person can become a victim without even knowing it. Vulnerabilities in the baseband software responsible for communication between the cell phone and the antennas are responsible for this capability. The rest require direct access to the device in order to intrude, so they are considered a lower level of threat to clients.
