TechFlow reports, Steven Laver, Mobile Chief Software Engineer at Solana Labs, said the video by CertiK did not reveal any known vulnerabilities or security threats to Saga phone users. The video demonstrated a user unlocking the bootloader, an operation that can be performed on many Android devices.
Laver stated, "Unlocking the bootloader is an advanced feature of the Saga, disabled by default. We believe in allowing users to choose how they use their phones. However, unlocking the bootloader is not a security vulnerability—users must explicitly authorize such changes to their device, and these changes can only be made by authorized users."
However, if a user or attacker proceeds to unlock the bootloader, they will receive multiple warnings, and both the device and its private keys will be erased.
"Therefore, this is not a process that can occur without active participation or awareness from the user."
The video then showed how an attacker could extract Bitcoin from a wallet on the phone. Notably, the video did not show the use of Seed Vault, which protects supported digital assets and seeds.
Earlier report, CertiK claimed it discovered a critical vulnerability in the Solana Phone, enabling user assets to be completely stolen within seconds.
