#1 Updated: What is Heartbleed?
Only Android 4.1.X Affected - Thanks Wayne May
This past Monday will go down in the history of the Internet forever, since that was the day when the world came to know of the existence of the crucial security flaw in the OpenSSL library – a bug that allowed attackers to exploit any secure system and collect up to 64k of otherwise-considered-secure information from any server employing the vulnerable SSL protocol; a bug that was dubbed Heartbleed.
Lookout’s Heartbleed Detector, however, is not a cleaner or fix
for the problem. In fact, just as its name goes, it can only detect if
the bug affected you, but beyond that, the measures are your own to
take. Google has been releasing patches for different versions of
Android to OEMs, so the OTA software update
that you might have seen (or will see hopefully soon) will fix the
problem for you. Meanwhile, Heartbleed Detector will help you put your
fears at ease by knowing how much did you lose. If your Android device hasn’t received a patch update notification yet, keep checking back, as Google is pursuing these rather aggressively

The famous mobile security company has released a free app over at the Google Play Store that will allow users to check and verify if their Android is vulnerable to the exploit. The app, named Heartbleed Detector, will check what version of OpenSSL your device is running, and based on the information, advises whether you have been affected or not.
