If you're running Samsung's TouchWiz, take heed: The custom Android interface is vulnerable to a malicious bit of HTML that could wipe your entire device. And all it takes is the simple click of one dirty link.
There's no official word yet on exactly how many different devices could potentially be affected by it. But according to The Verge, so far it's been confirmed on both the Samsung Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S3 (it appears to only work on Samsung phones running TouchWiz).
The issue was brought to light last week during a security conference in Argentina, where researcher Ravi Borgaonkar explained how different codes can essentially send your Samsung phone back to factory reset. Check out the video below and stay tuned for an update.?
