New Security update for Windows Phone 7 now available !
Looks like the planned May update is being rolled out, version 7.0.7392.0. This update addresses the fraudulent third-party digital certificates that could lead to potential phishing attacks or intercept web browser connections (man-in-the-middle). The update simply moves these certificates into the "Untrusted Publishers" certificate storage on your device..
While the chances of anyone actually trying to implement an attack based on this vulnerability is very low, considering the effort needed to set up a man-in-the-middle situation and the very public revelation of the threat, do yourself a favor and take a moment to install Microsoft's update, if only to have a fully up-to-date WP7 smartphone.
It's being called a 'critical ' security update that fixes issue related to fraudulent third party certificates and includes the NoDo update too. Read more about the security update on the Windows Phone Update Page
