Large majority of Android security exploits are in C and C++ written drivers, hence why with each release the amount of freedom with native code gets further locked down.

Android Q has another round of such measures.

Those may be security exploits, but the real malware is what gets installed through Google Play.
Hence a Play Store free alternative like GrapheneOS.
Nothing can be done to prevent stupid users to install everything that shines.

Even HNers do curl | sh without thinking twice about it.
