You have the version of SSL that is vulnerable however your phone is only vulnerable if you have the allow unknown sources box checked on your phone. This box checked will allow apps and other things to be installed on your phone from anywhere. If it is unchecked you can only add via Google Play.
There is NO download to update this yet. The phone manufacturers are working on patches to send out so until the patch is ready for your phone I would make sure the box is not checked.
Go to Settings> Security and then make sure the box that says Allow Unknown Sources.... is NOT checked

Are you sure that the phone is vulnerable? My Nexus 7 tablet running the same version was fine according to the Lookout application checking for the bug.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Jakeman, thank you for this information, I suspected this but was not 100%
certain. I do block apps so I'll be on the lookout for an update.
Thanks.

Very welcome. As long as you do not allow unknown sources you are good.
