I think if we do anything at THIS point, is thank Lenovo for at least making it a situation that became visible sooner, rather than later.
Still... there should be heads rolling.
Since it can be tested for... I think banking sites should start doing so, and throwing warnings at people about their browsers being compromised. This is superbad. This might well be as bad as Heartbleed and Shellshock, if not worse.
BTW, searching for "komodia products" (because I need to know what to avoid), the first TWO results are about the horrible security nightmare they've created. The third is their product page. I suspect their PR nightmare has only just begun.
Still leaving Lenova in my "never buy" list, though.
