The Web has largely fixed itself from the major Heartbleed OpenSSL bug discovered on April 7, 2014. From the reports we’ve seen, few major websites are still vulnerable to the bug, and many of the apps and services we use have been patched as well. Unfortunately, there’s one festering Heartbleed wound that isn’t fixed, and won’t get patched anytime soon. As Google admitted on its own blog, phones and tablets running Android 4.1.1 are vulnerable to Heartbleed bug hack attacks.
We’ve tried but can’t find a good listing of what phones and tablets might be vulnerable, so we decided to make one ourselves. Below you’ll find a near-complete list of devices we think could potentially have the Heartbleed bug. This is based on information from Wikipedia, wireless carrier websites, and all over. We’ll continue to update and fix this list as readers, manufacturers, and carriers respond to our requests for info. We’ve included any devices we believe could possibly have Android 4.1.1 on them. Recent estimates pin the number of vulnerable devices at about 50 million.
IF YOUR DEVICE IS LISTED AS VULNERABLE:
- Go to Settings > About phone to see if you’re running version 4.1.1.
- Run the Lookout Mobile Security app
- If you’re vulnerable, check for updates
- If there are no updates, take the phone offline and remove all sensitive information from it
- Avoid browsing the Web, using email, or doing anything serious on the device until a fix is issued. “If you have a vulnerable device and there’s no fix available for you, I would be very cautious about using that device for sensitive data,” Lookout’s Marc Rogers told Ars Technica. “So I would be cautious about using it for banking or sending personal messages.”
Most likely, an attacker might try to lure you into an infected website via email or some other method, trying to use the Hearbleed vulnerability to extract information from Web browser tabs. We recommend you use the Google Chrome browser, if it’s available on your device, and update it. Be sure to download the Lookout Mobile Security app to see if your device is vulnerable.
