What to check
- Applies to
- The 40 CVEs named below. Whether you run an affected version is not assessed: check the versions the source lists.
- Exploitation
- No exploitation in the wild and no public exploit is recorded for the CVEs named.
CERT-FR has published an advisory relaying Google's November 2026 Android security bulletin, which addresses a large number of vulnerabilities across the Android platform and its components. The flaws collectively allow an attacker to achieve remote code execution, privilege escalation, denial of service, and unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. All Android versions that have not received the 1 November 2026 security patch level are considered affected.
No in-the-wild exploitation is mentioned in this advisory. Defenders and device fleet managers should apply the vendor patches referenced in Google's official Android Security Bulletin as soon as feasible, prioritizing devices exposed to untrusted input (media processing, messaging apps, kernel/driver components) given the presence of RCE-capable issues among the listed CVEs. This is a routine monthly patch cycle rather than an active-exploitation event, but the sheer number of CVEs addressed warrants timely patch management and tracking of patch compliance across managed Android fleets.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,433 reports from 149 sources, 661 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
