    New vulnerability lets attackers sniff or hijack VPN connections

    Windows Phone vulnerable to FREAK ATTACK!

    First, don't panic.

    FREAK requires a middle man, an infected network, to forcefully reduce the encryption on the connection to vulnerable servers. I believe the attacker also needs both the server and the client to be vulnerable for this to work. Even though the carriers prevent
    patching of Windows Phone faster than actual Windows, as long as the server is patched, nothing happens.

    You're also good as long as you're not connecting to random, untrusted WiFi networks all the time.
