FAQs Stagefright, vulnerabilities threatening nearly 1 billion Android devices
All Things to Know About Stagefright, dangerous vulnerabilities potentially offensive nearly 1 billion Android devices in just “one note”.

Why should I care? If you are an Android user, your equipment is capable of danger. It’s how bad?
With Stagefright, hackers can attack the device just by simply sending malicious MMS messages. In fact, the victim does not need to open that message out, the purpose of the bad guys have been completed by as soon as receiving messages, their phones have been infected.

According to Adrian Ludwig, chief engineer in charge of security Google, the company has introduced several powerful technology from Android Ice Cream Sandwich as Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). Technology makes the attacker difficult to predict the positions of code to exploit the flaw.
