+</strong>
+</p>
+<p>
+Security patch levels of 2018-10-05 or later address all issues associated with
+the 2018-10-05 security patch level and all previous patch levels. To learn how
+to check a device's security patch level, read the instructions on the <a
+href="https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/4457705#pixel_phones&nexus_devices"
+class="external">Pixel and Nexus update schedule</a>.

+<strong>2. What do the entries in the <em>Type</em> column mean?</strong>
+</p>
+<p>
+Entries in the <em>Type</em> column of the vulnerability details table reference
+the classification of the security vulnerability.

+<strong>4. What does a * next to the Android bug ID in the <em>References</em>
+column mean?</strong>

+<p>
+Issues that are not publicly available have a * next to the Android bug ID in
+the <em>References</em> column. The update for that issue is generally contained
+in the latest binary drivers for Pixel&hairsp;/&hairsp;Nexus devices available
+from the <a href="https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers"

+Android Security Bulletins?</strong>
