After the OpenSSL Heartbleed vulnerability [1] that sent lots of products scrambling to issue a patch to prevent data leakage, the Linux Foundation formed a new initiative [2] with some of the major technologies leaders, to support critical open source projects to like OpenSSL to provide funding and ensure greater reliability.

"The first project under consideration to receive funds from the Initiative will be OpenSSL, which could receive fellowship funding for key developers as well as other resources to assist the project in improving its security, enabling outside reviews, and improving responsiveness to patch requests."[2]

Do you think this kind of initiative will improve open source project?

It has been reported that Bitcoin mining malware has been found in the Google Play store. If your battery is draining faster than usual, your phone maybe running a copy of the BadLepricon Bitcoin mining malware. "The malware comes in the form of a wallpaper app. Google promptly removed five of these applications after we alerted them to the issue. The apps had between 100-500 installs each at the time of removal."[1]
