  • Android 16 February 2026 security update goes live with minimal fixes
    February 4, 2026, 10:40 AM EST. Google issued the February 2026 security bulletin for Android 16. There are no broad fixes listed this month, a contrast to January. The Pixel Update Bulletin shows one fixed item: CVE-2026-010 A-463674877 EoP High VPU Driver. Here, EoP stands for Elevation of Privilege, meaning an attacker could gain higher access. The patch focuses on stability and performance rather than major vulnerabilities. Expect a broader update cadence with Android 16 QPR3 next month. Betas have circulated with new features, but users risk instability, so newcomers should consider delaying if they only own one device. Google notes betas are relatively stable overall, but issues can appear in the wild. Pixel devices will receive the update next month with QPR3.
