In July, more than 950 million Android smartphones and tablets across the globe were under the threat of “Stagefright” which could control any vulnerable device through a malicious MMS. After that Google started releasing monthly Android security updates to combat this issue. Now, Google has started pushing the January Android security update for its Nexus range of devices.
Google has listed one of the most severe vulnerability that could enable remote code execution on an affected device through multiple methods such as email, web browsing, and MMS when processing media files. The factory images for Nexus range of devices are also available on Google's Android Developers' website. Both the OTA update and factory images are for devices running Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P will get the new Android security OTA update with build MMB29P.
