Nvidia has simultaneously released a new software update for all the owners of Shield Tablet and Shield Tablet K1. The Nvidia Tablet updates without Android Oreo (which will not arrive), but it includes few little bug fixes and massive fixes for the KRACK vulnerability supporting its devices from the security point of view.
The Nvidia Shield Tablet upgrade 5.3, currently in distribution, aims to correct the critical KRACK vulnerability and fix other small issues, as we can read from the changelog on the product page.
- Addresses Wi-Fi vulnerabilities (KRACK and Broadpwn)
- Fixing connectivity issues with Zagg Bluetooth keyboards
- Overall system stability and security optimizations
- Update to Android Security Patch Level November 5, 2017
The new updates are a few hours away via OTA and may need to wait a few hours/day before you can receive them.
