PACKETVIDEO RESPONSE TO ANDROID SECURITY VULNERABILITY

PacketVideo is aware of a security flaw in Android's browsing software and has worked diligently alongside its partners to resolve the issue. A fix was issued February 7, 2009 to the public OpenCORE repository, as well as an oCERT advisory. The patch will be pushed to the G1 handset at T-Mobile's discretion.

As one of the world's largest suppliers of mobile content protection, PV understands that security is about staying one step ahead of hackers. While our track record is one of reliability, the security landscape is constantly changing, presenting an ongoing challenge. In the rare instance in which a security breach is discovered, we will fix the issue as quickly and efficiently as possible.
