Quote:A security vulnerability that allows anyone to unlock a Samsung Galaxy S10 protected with a fingerprint has convinced banks that it’s time to enforce new protection rules, at least for this particular model.
 
As a result, some banks removed their mobile banking apps for Samsung Galaxy S10, while others released updates to disable fingerprint support when apps are installed on this Samsung smartphone.
 
Earlier this month, it was discovered that breaking into a Galaxy S10 with fingerprint authentication turned on can be done with the help of a screen protector added on top of the display. Samsung has already promised a fix, and banks say their new rules remain in place until the company releases this path

As per AA, banks like NatWest and Nationwide Building Society in the United Kingdom already announced such measures.
