Some Android devices using a specific Broadcom wireless chipset may be vulnerable to a malicious wifi takeover attach, according to Ars Technical. Apple had devices using this chipset but have already patched them. The attack can result in a full take over of the Android device.

Anything using a specific chipset. Not sure if anything outside of phones uses that one.
