    The April 2024 security update for Pixel phones fixes 24 vulnerabilities, including CVE-2024-29740, a critical severity elevation of privilege flaw.

    Too bad it doesn’t expose which updates were made and which CVEs were patched. I guess it came in the “April 5” security update my phone has now…

      It constantly annoys me that it doesn’t present a change log for system updates. It’s just like here you go, install this, maybe this one has security updates, you’ll never know. Doesn’t even tell you what version it is installing.

        That’s why I like Samsung. They at least tell you what kind of update you’re installing.
