I thought so too. Seemed like August was the last one we got before this.

Google AOSP fixed Blueborne in the September 2017 patch, so if you got a Blueborne patch it is a Samsung add-on patch - that may not have changed the AOSP/Android security patch level.

It looks like August 2017 is "it" as far as Samsung trying to integrate native Android patches in. But at least Verizon and Sammy worked together to get a patch in for some of the nasties afterward. Nothing from AT&T.

The last security update I received for my Sprint Galaxy Note 4 was October 17th 2017. Not happy. I might be forced to pick up a Galaxy Note 8 without a replaceable battery. @#*&$!
