Because this isn't really a vulnerability. It's "if you completely control the device that is sending/receiving encrypted messages, you can read the messages."

There's literally no way to defend against this attack. About the best they could do is show a warning like "Warning: The version of Android you are using contains vulnerabilities attackers could use to take control of your phone. Please update your softw... buy a new phone to get the latest version of Android."

Yeah...it doesn't feel like a true vulnerability...feels like just padding the "vulnerability" counter :p
