          Given how large and complex the Android operating system and its underlying components are, it’s not unusual to see a dozen or more vulnerabilities documented in a bulletin. However, the July 2025 bulletin broke this decade-long trend: out of the 120 bulletins published up to that point, it was the first ever to not list a single vulnerability.

          Instead of bundling all available security patches into the next ASB, Google now prioritizes shipping only “high-risk” vulnerabilities in its monthly releases. The majority of security fixes, meanwhile, will be shipped in quarterly ASBs.
