Samsung has upgraded the majority of its devices to the August 2024 Android security levels in the past few weeks. Now, the tech giant is all set to roll out the September 2024 security update for its compatible phones and tablets. Ahead of the roll-out, Samsung has revealed details of the September 2024 security update for its products.
As expected, this month’s security update will offer several fixes for various vulnerabilities. Just like the August Android patch, the September 2024 security update is critical for keeping your Samsung phone/tablet safe. Samsung posted details of the new update soon after Google started rolling it out for the Pixel phones a few days ago.

As per the official changelog, Samsung’s September 2024 security update brings fixes for as many as 67 security issues. The new firmware addresses one critical and 43 high-level security vulnerabilities in Samsung phones and tablets. Some of these issues were also fixed in the August update.
Apart from Google’s fixes, Samsung has also added fixes for 23 security vulnerabilities found on its products.
