Not only this but Samsung’s August 2022 patch also brings a fix for a dangerous Dialer bug that allowed local attackers to access ICCID via logs. It includes SVE-2022-0726(CVE-2022-33724) which harms the native Dialer app.

It’s worth mentioning that recently, Samsung expanded the August patch for the Galaxy S20 series in its hometown. Aside from security and privacy enhancements, that update also brought improvements for the 11 stock apps in order to speed up the phone’s performance and deliver a more reliable experience.

Meanwhile, the same month’s patch in this United States doesn’t bring any such app upgrades. Also, the updated package size which is just 245 MB suggests that no noticeable changes will be appeared after installing the update.

Still, since the monthly patch is responsible for your phone’s better performance and privacy, we suggest you download it.
