my Samsung galaxy a53 5g phone has Severe Vulnerabilities

You need to bring that up with Samsung. Carriers don't touch code like people in the states think they do.
Samsung in this scenario is the one that handles security patches..as well as operating system updates..
LG handles LG devices..
OnePlus handles their own stuff for their own devices…
only thing the above have in common is the carrier will test against most of the updates and either pass them or kick them back to be fixed if it affects the devices..other than that the carrier doesnt have much to do with security updates seeing as how they dont really want to botch it up.
as is if Samsung has not completed the patch for this specific device (they ALL get their own variant..its not a one for all type deal) then no matter how many times you check it wont be there..they must complete it...test it...fix any issues..retest it..get it cleared by the carriers testing..then the carrier gives the ok for it to be kicked out.
as it has been since the first smart phone kicked out pretty much..
