These vulnerabilities include over a dozen of CVEs found in Google and 31 exposures affecting Samsung apps and One UI. And these exposure solutions are related to Samsung Dialer, Bluetooth connectivity, DesktopSystemUI, Wi-Fi service, Samsung DeX, and others.

Pre-installed with Android 11 OS, the Samsung Galaxy A32 was launched last year. The device received its first major OS update as Android 12-based One UI 4.0 and is currently running on the One UI 4.1 version.

Next, the phone will receive Android 13-based One UI 5.0 which might be publically released in October. At this time, One UI 5.0 is in the beta phase that is being tested by Galaxy S22 series users in some countries.
