For those unaware, KNOX works by integrating itself with Android’s framework and the device hardware to create a “container,” a separate execution environment for apps to run and store data. Any apps that are run inside this environment have their data safe and sound from those outside it, allowing one to run trusted apps without fear of having their data compromised. The discovered hack can supposedly access data inside the container, which would make the whole point of KNOX a moot one, so hopefully Samsung will work on closing the loop-hole as quickly as possible.
