Newly discovered vulnerabilities in the way Android processes media files can allow attackers to compromise devices. The vulnerabilities can lead to remote code execution on almost all devices that run Android. Researchers from mobile security firm Zimperium found similar flaws earlier this year in an Android library called Stagefright. The most straight-forward exploitation method for the latest vulnerabilities is through Web browsers, the researchers said. A fix will be released on Oct. 5 as part of the new scheduled monthly Android security update, Google says.”]
