Ahaha! After some digging around, I found a note at the bottom of this:

https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2017-09-01

That the Sept security updates would be shipped as part of the upgrade to Oreo.

Note that the reading is a little depressing. There are a number of "remote code execution in a privileged process" vulns. This particular one is not even considered "remote". It is listed as "proximate".

I guess the other ones didn't get flashy press releases? I dunno....
