A software development kit created by Baidu, China’s Google, has reportedly opened more than 100 million Android devices to malicious hackers. Baidu’s Moplus SDK may not be available to the public but it’s already made its way into more than 14,000 Android apps — only 4,000 of which Baidu actually created. The SDK allows its apps to open an unsecured and unauthenticated HTTP server connection.
