    They patched it though I got an update today. I’m surprised this isn’t on more phones, Xiaomi was first with security app, then others copied it (or did it right!).

    And that’s why I flashed LOS. Can’t trust an OS that is shipped with apps like Clean master by Cheetah Mobile. This breach seems to have been worse than that.

    The odds of a MITM attack that changes the malware list happening to you and then getting the malware that was removed have got to be pretty low, though. I don’t see why someone would do this MITM attack if they don’t have a way to install their malware.

    They don’t need to. They just need to be on the same wireless network. They could push malware to your Xiaomi phone as they have root level access.

    It has more to do that they have purposely hairbrained security. Root-level updates over HTTP? These guys are fucking insane. This is why I flash custom roms.

    You have to make an id on xiomi to unlock it which transmits a hell lot of data before you can wipe miui

    Yeah it’s not exactly rocket science. Don’t use the phone as your personal device before unlocking it, and if you really care about your network etc, don’t use your home network ip to register and unlock the phone. You can even use a virtual machine to unlock it.

    Took my post from r/Android because I really would like to know:

    The article says Xiaomi has fixed the problem by releasing a patch ‘shorly after’. But it doesnt state when they told Xiaomi of this, so I am wondering in what update this has been fixed. Does anyone know?

    In one changelog of a weekly I found:

    **Security center**
    Fix -Repairing the risk copy during the virus scanning process will restart the scanning

    This doesn’t really seems to be related to the issue. Anyone any idea?

    That’s because you bought a Redmi Note 3 Pro. Don’t blame your poor experience on the company, you bought a cheap phone and got a cheap phone experience.

    No it’s more than that, for government officials and medical buildings, if they have Wi-Fi pretty much they’re pretty easy to crack so what that means is that if you are somebody who is doing sensitive work like at a university research lab or anything similar, then somebody could be outside the building and hack you. Now you might not think it’s a big thing but given how big corporate espionage is against other companies and given how medical data has been stolen left and right as of recent, this is actually a bad thing because while you may not think you are interesting, the data you have is pretty good for mapping out metadata and other things that we could use to our advantage.

    You say that like the Apple didn’t release the iPhone 6 AND 6S, knowing they were 10x more susceptible to bending than the 5s. Only one of Xiaomi’s phones had a serious bending issue, and the next generation was built much better. Apple just ignored the issue until the 7.
