October Security Update dropped fast!

[anon(40376)]

This could be the fastest update I have ever received. Maybe due to the chance 12 is coming out soon, there was no need for a big update.

I was hoping 12 would BE the update

Most likely many were hoping, but I would prefer Google sit back and make sure it has no bugs before releasing.

Local permanent denial of service (device inoperability: permanent or requiring reflashing the entire operating system or factory reset)

Just one of the bugs never a dull moment or boring moment.

???? Not sure what was just said.

Phone had a chance of getting itself into a state of preventing itself from being able to communicate, which would require a reboot or a full factory reset in order to overcome, if at all possible to overcome. Sounds like a good reason to me for an urgent patch.
