Last year, during the Pwn2Own hacking event in Austin, Texas, the Samsung Galaxy S21 devices were hacked, not once but twice, across a period of just 48 hours.
This year also the Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S22 smartphone fell to zero-day exploits twice on the same day.
But this time, Samsung fixed the issues before malicious threat actors can do any harm.
