X-Ray scans your Android device for unpatched vulnerabilities
- jonoberheide 14y agoX-Ray author here, happy to answer any questions folks have!
- ryanhuff 14y agoWhy haven't you published this to the Google Play store?
- jonoberheide 14y agoWe'd love to be able to publish it in the Play Store, but we were informed by Google that the terms of service disallow any apps that check for vulnerabilities, despite X-Ray's good intentions. It's a weird distinction that they allow AV-like apps, but not vulnerability assessment apps.
- dlokshin 14y agoJust ran it on my Nexus S with 4.1 and everything is patched. Currious to see how the HTC / Samsung's that are not Nexus devices fare.
- jonoberheide 14y ago4.1 is definitely the most secure Android you can be running currently. We posted about some of the security improvements in Jelly Bean 4.1 last week: https://blog.duosecurity.com/2012/07/exploit-mitigations-in-android-jelly-bean-4-1/ https://blog.duosecurity.com/2012/07/exploit-mitigations-in-...
- seanponeil 14y agoGalaxy Nexus running CM9 RC1 is vulnerable to Mempodroid :(
- ad0nis 14y agoCM9 RC1 is supposed to be running 4.0.4, right? Shouldn't that have been patched already? Though it also appears they have some bigger issues, like everything you type going out to the debug logs, passwords included. You should report this on their issue tracker: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
- jonoberheide 14y agoIf anyone can quickly point me at the CM9 kernel source, I can verify whether or not this is actually patched. The vulnerability is looking checking to see if the mem_write() function is functional (where the vulnerability was present), which was removed/disabled by upstream AOSP.
- jmediast 14y agoRunning an older CM7 build on my evo4g, vulnerable to ZurgRush :(
- ad0nis 14y agoRan it on Verizon Galaxy Nexus (4.0.4) and it appears everything is patched. Now if they would just get me Jellybean, I would be a really happy camper...
- kaolinite 14y agoSamsung S2 here (running latest update to ICS). All patched, no vulns. I'm actually a little disappointed in a way :-P
- JangoSteve 14y agoMotorola Droid Bionic, running latest official carrier update, vulnerable to Gingerbreak :-\
