After watching friends play Fortnite on their iPhones for months, you may have downloaded the game the second it became available for your Android phone. I get it. But doing so could have put you at risk.

As spotted by Android Central, Google has disclosed a huge vulnerability in Epic Games' original Fortnite installer for Android, one that could have taken advantage of the Fortnite installer to install and launch a rogue app, and even give that app access to your phone's data without you ever knowing.
