nothing to do with openness

"Once installed, the apps exploited known vulnerabilities that gave the malware root access to a phone's most sensitive functions"

The above sentence quoted from the article is the key. If an OS has known vulnerabilities and the OS manufacturer or the phone manufacturer don't provide timely automatic updates that fix these vulnerabilites then it's to be expected that they will be exploited.

So the blame is on Google and the phone manufacturers, not the 'openness' of the OS or the marketplace.

Security through obscurity like Apple seems to prefer is not a viable longterm solution, any security expert will confirm that.
