Samsung Galaxy S10 Receiving Bug Fix for the Fingerprint Flaw

The fingerprint is considered to be the best form of privacy however, after knowing this flaw, it’s for sure that nothing is private when you reply on digitization and devices.

This issue was spotted by a girl who installed a third-party screen protector on the device and soon came to know that her husband could open her device with his fingerprint even when his fingerprint was not registered with S10.  She took to the internet and reported this problem, after which many other people came and reported the same problem.
