Google released security patches for Android that fixed 60 flaws, including two critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerabilities that impacted platforms running Android versions 11, 12, and 13. Google has withheld all information on the two vulnerabilities, CVE-2023-20951 and CVE-2023-20954, to prevent attackers from actively exploiting them before users can install the available patches. The most critical challenges resolved this month are two critical-severity flaws on closed-source Qualcomm components, CVE-2022-33213 and CVE-2022-33256. The remaining vulnerabilities for this patch version are all of uncertain severity. If users have an Android smartphone that is running version 10 or earlier, it has reached end-of-life (EoL) and will no longer get updates for the aforementioned bugs. It is advised for users of older, working devices to upgrade to an active third-party Android distribution, such as LineageOS or GrapheneOS, which provides up-to-date OS images for older, OEM-unsupported devices.
