मुख्य बातें

  • Security researcher Mark Blaszczyk has disclosed a flaw nicknamed the 'SMS of Death', tracked as CVE-2026-58882, in which a single hidden WAP Push message can crash Android's phone service without the user tapping anything or even seeing the message.
  • An active call, including an emergency call, can drop, and about 20 such messages can leave a phone unusable for a long time.
  • Google's fix covers Android 14 to 17, while Android 12 and 13 devices have not received it, so users should install the latest security update available for their phone.
  • سیکیورٹی محقق مارک بلاسزک نے 'ایس ایم ایس آف ڈیتھ' نامی خامی کا انکشاف کیا ہے، جس کا کوڈ CVE-2026-58882 ہے، جس میں ایک پوشیدہ ویپ پش پیغام صارف کے کچھ کیے بغیر یا پیغام دیکھے بغیر اینڈرائیڈ کی فون سروس کو بند کر سکتا ہے۔ جاری کال، بشمول ایمرجنسی کال، منقطع ہو سکتی ہے، اور تقریباً 20 ایسے پیغامات فون کو طویل عرصے تک ناقابل استعمال بنا سکتے ہیں۔ گوگل کی اصلاح اینڈرائیڈ 14 سے 17 کے لیے ہے، جبکہ اینڈرائیڈ 12 اور 13 والے فونز کو یہ نہیں ملی، اس لیے صارفین کو اپنے فون کے لیے دستیاب تازہ ترین سیکیورٹی اپ ڈیٹ انسٹال کرنا چاہیے۔
  • सुरक्षा शोधकर्ता मार्क ब्लाज़्ज़िक ने 'एसएमएस ऑफ डेथ' नाम की खामी का खुलासा किया है, जिसका कोड CVE-2026-58882 है, जिसमें एक छिपा हुआ वैप पुश संदेश उपयोगकर्ता के कुछ किए बिना या संदेश देखे बिना एंड्रॉयड की फोन सेवा को बंद कर सकता है। चल रही कॉल, आपातकालीन कॉल सहित, कट सकती है, और लगभग 20 ऐसे संदेश फोन को लंबे समय तक अनुपयोगी बना सकते हैं। गूगल का सुधार एंड्रॉयड 14 से 17 के लिए है, जबकि एंड्रॉयड 12 और 13 वाले फोन को यह नहीं मिला है, इसलिए उपयोगकर्ताओं को अपने फोन के लिए उपलब्ध नवीनतम सुरक्षा अपडेट स्थापित करना चाहिए।
