while this vulnerability is extremely interesting, we should be reading actual report and exploit by Max Kellermann <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dirtypipe.cm4all.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dirtypipe.cm4all.com&#x2F;</a> not a script-kiddie compatible cut-paste copy + modification.<p>The original one is more general anyhow.

That&#x27;s essentially a way to root every unpatched Android phone without special bootloader care, right?
