Thanks to CX for the article.

Basically the article says that if you are on: BlackBerry Device Software v4.7.0.x then you should upgrade to v4.7.0.179 or later

Hmm, that doesn't exist right now.

So what does Verizon do? Update to a fail 5.0, or go to a > v4.7.0.179????

BTW, this is a pretty decent security flaw in the browser which makes it easier for malicious parties to execute "phishing" attacks on unsuspecting smartphone users.

Thanks Mark. Sunkast was writing up a post about this as we speak. Maybe they will push out 5.0 a little quicker now lol
