A serious vulnerability has been discovered in the Dolby decoder that could allow hackers to launch zero-click attacks on Android devices. This flaw, identified as an out-of-bounds write issue, can be exploited while processing media files without any user interaction. That means you could be targeted just by receiving a media file, no clicks or taps needed.
This kind of attack is particularly concerning because it makes it harder for users to protect themselves. You might not even realize your device is compromised until it’s too late. Experts are urging Android users to stay alert and consider updating their software to patch this vulnerability as soon as possible. So, if you’re an Android user, keep your eyes peeled for updates and stay safe out there!
