By now, anyone with an internet connection who hasn't had their head buried in the sand for the last few days has undoubtedly heard of the Heartbleed bug. You know, the nasty one that can steal the encryption keys for about 75% of the internet and steal every bit of data contained therein. Well, your Android device may be vulnerable as well. Google has stated that while most Android devices are immune to the bug, Android 4.1.1 could be vulnerable to it. Yahoo reports that Google is sending instructions on how to incorporate a security patch to device manufacturers in the hopes of securing those devices still on 4.1.1. Those of you that are running devices with 4.1.1 based custom or stock ROMs should click this for more information.
