Yeah most of the old reddit browsers for Android seem to have a patch like this. Obviously they’re no longer intended for use by the developers, but for anyone using them it would probably be good to know whether they will be forever at risk to a vulnerability like this.

Thanks for the explanation! Hopefully that’s the case here then with Sync. Still hoping @[email protected] can confirm one way or another.

So if the phone gets a security update for this at the OS level, should we theoretically be safe to use apps with any sort of browser functionality? Like some apps that don’t update, or are no longer being maintained, etc

I just don’t like the idea of having 500 accounts after it’s all said and done, especially if most of them wind up being unused… unless I’m fundamentally doing something wrong by creating a new account on every instance I want to use?
