Critical July Android Security Patch

  Goggle issues Android patches on a monthly basis. For July one patch for CVE-2024-31320 is rated critical by Google.

 Android updates are issued to all manufactures who use Android for their devices. Smartphones, smart tablets, TVs, streamers, etc.
Those manufactures then integrate the updates into their products, apply vendor specific updates, test, then release the update to their customers. Google Pixel and Samsung are quick to release. 

 Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to take complete control of an android device. 

 Android 12 and 12L are most impacted, but the July Android update fixes 25 issues across the varied Android versions.
