The security weakness was discovered in a wide range of Qualcomm processors, including mobile System-on-Chip (SoCs), modems and FastConnect networking modules. Qualcomm identified 64 vulnerable chips, including popular versions such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Snapdragon 888+, Snapdragon 660 and Snapdragon 680 SoCs. Devices powered by these chips may be vulnerable to unauthorised access, potentially resulting in data breaches or other criminal acts.
The inclusion of Qualcomm's Snapdragon X55 5G modem, which is utilised in Apple's iPhone 12 series, is especially troubling. This shows the vast reach of the vulnerability, which affects not only Android smartphones but also some iPhones. Qualcomm has acknowledged the problem and is currently studying potential exploits, however they have stated that the vulnerability is under ‘limited, targeted exploitation.’
Qualcomm is creating software patches to remedy the issue and urges impacted device manufacturers to implement them as soon as they become available.

Android 16 could let you put ANY app in a floating bubble
With the launch of Android 11 in 2020, Google introduced a new feature called the bubbles API that lets messaging apps put conversations in a floating window. The floating window sits on top of other apps so you can quickly see or respond to messages from your favorite contacts. When you’re done chatting, you can minimize the floating window, which turns it into a small, floating icon that you can later tap to restore the window.
The problem with the bubbles API is that it only works for conversation notifications and can be opted out of, so many apps don’t support it.
But Google is now working to enable it for all applications.
