Going back to that guy saying his Andoird was freaking out and calling 911 and poo poo, like, how does that even happen? What sort of goofy race condition could happen in that operating system that would cause that? lol

speaking of bad software… a bug in pixel phones for the last 5 years has been including the full image data in files cropped by the pixel phone’s image markup tool. in many cases the original image can be recovered from these. https://twitter.com/itssimontime/status/1636857478263750656

we’re talking about in the security thread. Basically 5 years ago someone at google changed the behavior for the write only flag in an android core library from using the C fopen behavior to the POSIX open behavior. In fopen write only implies the truncate flag which zeros out the file on open. In the posix open write only does not do anything to the file until you write to it. it is not clear if this was an intentional change

lol someone at work just bought a pixel to put a 'secure third-party android' build on. not sure they'll be too happy to find it's instantly compromisable with a phone call

it does genuinely please me, not that there are security issues as such, but that there is some actual light being shone on how garbage the arm soc market is on all this. i am pretty persuaded that android is mostly very good on security in and of itself (a real funny failure above granted), but oems and soc manufacturers stand ready to undermine.

to add further confusion you still have the AAOS with and without google automotive services (GAS) distinction just like AOSP and google play services

tbh with them having lined up everything for 15 years of support (and that's 15 years past the end of production sounds like) it doesn't necessarily sound like a bad choice. do wish they'd promise a final "locked down" patch too, which you can opt into to neuter all network aspects of the thing to turn it into something dumb but hopefully indefinitely safe. but that's something all cars would need these days.
