Samsung Galaxy back-door allows for over-the-air filesystemaccess

Developers from the Replicant project (a free Android offshoot) have documented a serious software back-door in Samsung's Android phones, which "provides remote access to the data stored on the device." They believe it is "likely" that the backdoor could provide "over-the-air remote control" to "access the phone's file system." At issue is Samsung's proprietary IPC protocol, used in its modems.
