Android has Fallen! Yet another set of Android security vulnerabilities has been discovered in Qualcomm chipsets that affect more than 900 Million Android smartphones and tablets worldwide.

The chip, according to the latest statistics, is found in more than 900 Million Android tablets and smartphones.
