As usual, the patches here cover all kinds of different issues, from attacks that could take advantage of the AutoFill function on Android, to exploits in Qualcomm chips that could create corruptions in the memory on a device. Each bug is ranked in terms of its severity, and linked to a particular part of the system.
That means malicious code could trick Android into giving it VIP access to the system, and to settings and data access that are normally closed off from third-party apps. It would need some clever manipulation of video frame data to work, and it's reportedly been present in the Linux kernel since 2008.
According to GrapheneOS, one way the security hole could be taken advantage of is to pull data off a phone or tablet without permission—though physical access to the device would be required. There are no public details of how this might have been actively exploited, or by whom, but this latest update will fix the problem.

"Android partners are encouraged to fix all issues in this bulletin and use the latest security patch level," says Google.
