Steve Kondik AKA Cyanogen - Once the exploit was found he submitted the fix a day later to the android open source project with a patch.

Here's the accepted change if you're looking for the exact details of what he did. I don't know exactly "how" he did it as I only lightly dabble in programming and even then mostly in .NET:
