As you may know, Samsung removed in the spring Galaxy S8 to Galaxy S8 + from your software support list.

As a reminder, the November security patch includes Google's fixes for three critical vulnerabilities, 20 high-risk vulnerabilities, and two moderate-risk exploits, as well as fixes for 13 vulnerabilities found in smartphones and tablets Galaxy, of which Samsung labeled one as critical, one as high risk, and two as medium risk. The Korean giant also fixed a critical bug that caused insecure storage of sensitive information in Property Settings, allowing attackers to read ESN (Emergency Services Network) values ​​without permission. In addition, the patch addressed bugs caused by missing or incorrect input checks in HDCP and HDCP LDFW, which allowed attackers to override the TZASC (TrustZone Address Space Controller) module and thereby compromise the secure core TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) region.
