Amassing 523 distinct coding flaws this past year, Google's Androidmobile operating system took top spot among the 50 products with the most discovered vulnerabilities in 2016, according to the security vulnerability database website CVE Details.

 

Android's vulnerability totals far surpassed those of runners-up Debian Linux and Ubuntu Linux, which compiled 319 and 278 bugs respectively. Adobe's multimedia viewer Flash Player, which had the third highest number of vulnerabilities in 2015, claimed the fourth most errors this past year with 266.

It's a silly comparison. Android is an OS, Debian is a dist with hundreds of apps.

BTW, Microsoft products totalled 1,325 bugs, but each one was considered to be a "separate entity", so it didn't make the "bad guy" list.

Lucky them.
