gibberish thread. I wonder what scam its peddling on the backend?
Yeah, that's a lot of gibberish... The old concept keeps crumbling like sand...
Here's a recent gibberish: Developers of popular Android apps forgot to fix a dangerous vulnerability...
This year, Oversecured security researchers discovered a serious vulnerability (CVE-2020-8913) in the Play Core library, which allowed malware installed on users' devices to inject rogue code into other apps and steal sensitive data such as passwords, photos, 2FA codes and more.  Nothing about the topic of password-based security - doesn't that help your thinking go into a groove?
According to a scan conducted by Check Point, six months after the Play Core update was released, 13% of all apps on the Google Play Store were still using the library, and only 5% were using the updated (secure) version. Among the apps with the highest number of users who failed to update the library, Check Point identified:
- Microsoft Edge, Grindr, OKCupid, Cisco Teams, Viber and Booking.com.

You don't happen to have products from these companies. I mean on the devices you use when you work with cryptocurrency?
