While Android might be a flexible, powerful mobile OS, it is also not impervious to outside security threats, which is why Android security patches are so important. That’s especially true of Samsung’s August security update, which brings fixes for several high-level issues that affect Samsung’s devices as well as Android at large. We’ve already seen the update come to the Galaxy S24 and many older Samsung devices, but what about Samsung’s newest ones? Ironically, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 are some of the only major devices that haven’t received the update — until now.

It seems the update has started rolling out in Korea, as first spotted by Tarun Vats on X (formerly Twitter). The updates carry build versions F956NKSU1AXH7 for the Fold 6 and F741NKSU1AXH7 for the Flip 6. For now, there are no reports of the Flip 6 or Fold 6 update reaching other countries, but once it starts rolling out in one region.

So, what’s new? This is a pretty important security update actually, with roughly 50 fixes, 35 of which are directly from Google.

Many of these address moderate or high-level issues, though one particularly critical issue being addressed by Google is CVE-2024-36972. This vulnerability could reportedly allow attackers to bypass security and gain elevated device privileges. From there, an attacker could spy, install malware, steal banking information, and more. Samsung also mentions a few specific fixes that are included in this security patch for the Fold 6 and Flip 6. These include improvements to the palm detection feature while shooting images.
