I have a public service announcement. News just came out that your phone
could be hacked by memes. This is a worldwide issue We need our memes.
It is our lifeblood. How am I supposed to procrastinate? And how am I supposed
to get a girlfriend? At least according to those Tinder profiles I read.
It's time to cancel meme review or we'll all get hacked. Let's talk about
this tragedy right after you subscribe to PewDiePie. And while you're at
it subscribe to me and hit that bell icon.
Hey, friend Brandon here, your host of This is Tech Today and I'm here
with a quick video to tell you about a severe security issue that can allow
a hacker access to your phone or tablet. Imagine you're having a bummer
of a day like I had after work and he just want to look up some dank memes
to help cheer you up. So you go and you message one of your friends for
some comfort. And he offers you some dank memes because bros just know
you love the memes. But wait, this is it a normal meme. Nope. Not one bit
my friend.
It's a ruthless malicious meme.
You click on it and all of a sudden it executes code that was smuggled
within its meme goodness and malware was just installed on your phone that
access to your phone. Now I can see what you're typing what your pictures
are what apps you have and how you use your apps. And no I'm not talking
about Facebook. I'm talking about a PNG file. Yes a PNG file you know an
image it's like a cousin to the JPEG or the gif not Jif.
That's that's a peanut butter.
You see it was recently discovered that a hacker could take a specially
crafted PNG file to execute arbitrary code and send it to you over email
or over a messaging service and it could then run on your device without
it being caught or noticed. This affects both phones and tablets specifically
Android phones and tablets. Which accounts for nearly 87 percent of all
mobile devices out there. But there's a solution that will allow you to
enjoy that wonderful meme power.
But first, we can't talk about power without talking about this video sponsor
RavPower and the charger revolution that they're a part of. With their
gallium nitride Chargers grab powers gallium nitride charger enables a
ton of power in a really small design. I mean look at how crazy small
it is next this huge MacBook charging brick because of its small thin and
lightweight three point two ounce design. By the way their website says
three put two ounces but I'm getting 2. 2 8 balances So even better.
But because of their lightweight design and technology it is fantastic for travel.
It supports fast charging on most major flagship phones back to the iPhone
8 and Galaxy S8 and works on tablets like the iPad Pro and laptops like
the MacBook and MacBook Air. If you want a really great charger that charges
two and a half times faster than a standard 5V charger make sure to click
the link and description to pick one out. Thank you so much RavPower for
supporting this community and I think all of you who help support me by
supporting our sponsors. Let me know in the comments if you pick one up. Okay,
so what's the scoop. Should we be afraid and what is the solution? Well,
the good news is that Google caught the vulnerability and issued a fix
in their most recent February security patch update. The bad news is that
many manufacturers are pretty slow to put out updates. That is unless you
have a pixel. Actually, I'm pretty sure I can hit the check for update
button on my pixel 3XL and it'll give me the update. There you go.
So either you can get a pixel phone or an iPhone. Ha!. But, um, that face
time bug though. You didn't think I'd let them off the hook for that did you?
They fixed it though.
But don't freak out too much. As far as Google knows no one has been attacked
by this and they're not releasing the means in which you can perform this
hack until the solution has been distilled the manufacturers and consumer
devices are taken care of. So don't fret friend. Enjoy those dank memes
and subscribe to PewDiePie.
