Security Update for the Month of March Arrives on the Galaxy S8+

23 March, 2018 Samsung Updates


We are about to enter the last week of March, but the month is not over yet, so you should be glad to know that Samsung is now rolling out the March security update to the Galaxy S8+. As of now, reports indicate that the rollout is being carried out in Germany for the unlocked variants, but it wouldn't be surprising if the update is waiting for you, even if you don't live in Germany. Once these updates start to roll out in one region, they don't take too much time in appearing in all the other regions as well. The US and China has a slightly different time schedule though.


In case you are not aware what you are going to get with the patch, go through the following.


·         9 critical vulnerabilities will be addressed in the base Android OS

·         Multiple less severe vulnerabilities in the base Android OS will also be addressed

·         The patch will include 5 of Samsung's own fixes

·         The firmware in question carries version number G955FXXU1CRC7


If you have a Galaxy S8, we are expecting the same update to hit the device any day now.
