The UAE Cyber Security Council has issued a security alert advising Samsung users to update their devices to the latest version to protect against potential data theft. Samsung has released critical security updates to address vulnerabilities found in its flagship models.
The council emphasized the importance of installing the latest Android updates, which include patches from Google's July 2024 Android Security Bulletin and additional fixes from Samsung. These updates are crucial in preventing unauthorized access and data breaches.
Samsung has noted a few disclaimers regarding the updates:
- Regular OS upgrades might delay planned security updates, but they will include the latest security patches when delivered.
- The delivery time for security patches may vary by region and model.
- Some device-specific patches from chipset vendors may not be included in the current month's security update but will be added in future updates as they become available.
