Quick Summary:

Initially this was presented as a Pixel only threat, which Google acknowledged had been exploited in the wild.

I have been critical of Samsung for their patchwork quilt approach to updates and for recent delays, but this fix is quicker than I expected and they deserve full credit for that.

But Samsung has now surprised on the upside and told me that “the target schedule for this fix is August… [albeit] this may vary on network provider and device.” That’s earlier than expected.
