OnePlus Finally Issues Update To Fix OnePlus 6 Bootloader Bug
Recently, OnePlus 6 discovered a bootloader failure that allowed access to the equipment and endangered the safety of users and their data.
After becoming aware of this problem, the Chinese brand has posted to correct the problem and has already released a patch update.
The OnePlus 6 was released last month and has been a real hit after the brand announced that it sold one million units in just 22 days. These results reflect the strong commitment that the brand has made to keep its smartphone competitive against the competition.
However, a serious bootloader vulnerability was recently discovered that allowed full access to the device by booting with any modified image. However, to exploit this bug, physical access to the smartphone was required.
After admitting this problem, the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus focused on solving it, having already been able to identify a solution. With the recently released 5.1.7 update (after some problems with version 5.1.6) for OnePlus 6, the resolution of this problem is already reaching users by eliminating the security flaw.
A new update, 5.1.8, has also been announced that will further address other stability issues that have been reported by users.
With the updates announced, OnePlus shows that it continues to work on the evolution of OxygenOS in order to solve all the problems that have arisen and to present new functions for its users.
