We encourage all users to update to 166the latest version of Android where possible. 167 <li> The Android Security team is actively monitoring for abuse with Verify Apps and 168SafetyNet which will warn about potentially harmful applications about to be 169installed. Device rooting tools are prohibited within Google Play. To protect 170users who install applications from outside of Google Play, Verify Apps is 171enabled by default and will warn users about known rooting applications. Verify 172Apps attempts to identify and block installation of known malicious 173applications that exploit a privilege escalation vulnerability. If such an 174application has already been installed, Verify Apps will notify the user and 175attempt to remove any such applications. 176 <li> As appropriate, Google Hangouts and Messenger applications do not automatically 177pass media to processes such as mediaserver. 178</ul> 179 180<h3 id=acknowledgements>Acknowledgements</h3> 181 182 183<p>We would like to thank these researchers for their contributions:</p> 184 185<ul> 186 <li> Abhishek Arya, Oliver Chang, and Martin Barbella of Google Chrome Security 187Team: CVE-2016-0815 188 <li> Anestis Bechtsoudis (<a href="https://twitter.com/anestisb">@anestisb</a>) of CENSUS S.A.: CVE-2016-0816, CVE-2016-0824 189 <li> Chad Brubaker from Android Security: CVE-2016-0818 190 <li> Mark Brand of Google Project Zero: CVE-2016-0820 191 <li> Mingjian Zhou (<a href="https://twitter.com/Mingjian_Zhou">@Mingjian_Zhou</a>), Chiachih Wu (<a href="https://twitter.com/chiachih_wu">@chiachih_wu</a>), and Xuxian Jiang of <a href="http://c0reteam.org">C0RE Team</a> from <a href="http://www.360safe.com">Qihoo 360</a>: CVE-2016-0826 192 <li> Peter Pi (<a href="https://twitter.com/heisecode">@heisecode</a>) of Trend Micro: CVE-2016-0827, CVE-2016-0828, CVE-2016-0829 193 <li> Scott Bauer (<a href="mailto:sbauer@eng.utah.edu">sbauer@eng.utah.edu</a>, <a href="mailto:sbauer@plzdonthack.me">sbauer@plzdonthack.me</a>): CVE-2016-0822 194 <li> Wish Wu (<a href="https://twitter.com/@wish_wu">@wish_wu</a>) of Trend Micro Inc.: CVE-2016-0819 195 <li> Yongzheng Wu and Tieyan Li of Huawei: CVE-2016-0831 196 <li> Su Mon Kywe and Yingjiu Li of Singapore Management University: CVE-2016-0831 197 <li> Zach Riggle (<a href="https://twitter.com/@ebeip90">@ebeip90</a>) of the Android Security Team: CVE-2016-0821 198</ul> 199 200<h2 id=security_vulnerability_details>Security Vulnerability Details</h2> 201 202 203<p>In the sections below, we provide details for each of the security 204vulnerabilities listed in the <a href="#security_vulnerability_summary">Security Vulnerability Summary</a> above.
