Useless self marketing report.<p>The bug is useless unless you target a specific carrier deployed app with the right permissions. No mention what allowed the exploit to happen. this is more important to know than that there are exploits in the wild.<p>And the fact that Google should just be checking for the existence of one single file on the packages and it still missed it and allowed (a cloned one no less) app to show in the market is inexcusable.
