HMD Global has reportedly started rolling out a new update for Nokia 6.1 in India, and the update brings the September security patch. Nokia 6.1 users can check for a prompt in their notifications panel, or head to Settings to see if there is any pending update. The September security patch brings fixes to many issues, including critical security vulnerability in Media framework that could enable a remote attacker using a specially crafted file to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. We recommend that you install the Nokia 6.1 update soon, as security patches often fix critical issues related to malware and phishing activities.

NokiaPowerUser reports that Nokia 6.1 users in India (model number TA-1089), in UAE, and in Germany (model number TA-1043) are getting the September security update currently. This may be a phased roll out, and eventually all eligible regions will get the update soon. Check for the update manually in Settings if you already haven't been prompted to install. We recommend that you install the update under a good Wi-Fi connection, and charge the phone up to 80 percent at least before proceeding to install the update. The size of the update is at 81.7MB.
