Yep. Even Google's own devices that are not supported anymore will permanently be vulnerable to this: https://developers.google.com/android/images https://developers.google.com/android/images I have a Pixel C that will never have an official patch to this exploit. I wonder if this is a user space exploit too, and if so, that would mean there's no technical reason for why they can't update it.

I'm pretty sure that Pixel C (dragon) is in the PostmarketOS wishlist - you might want to get involved! It does already have LineageOS support.

  Yep it does, I have it on Lineage. However Lineage cannot update the Kernel (due to no vendor support), it's stuck on 3.10. I'll take a look at Postmarket, I didn't know they were working on it. My issue is that I use the tablet primarily as my music workstation, and there are several apps I use that depend on Google Play. I do have a Pinephone, and I would honestly prefer to use my time to get a matured OS for that. EDIT: I looked around on PostmarketOS, I did not see anything for the Pixel C? I just saw an external resource on how to boot Linux onto the Pixel C
