Re: Hole that allows Droid to be Rooted is being patched.

From what I can tell, going forward, if this goes out in a patch it will prevent modified update.zip files from running on the device. So the existing method won't work after this is patched.

Really it is a security issue that people can modify these files which have root access.

My hope is that the existing roots are going to give the right people enough access to create a more secure method from the inside out instead of the outside in.
