This being a footnote instead of in the headline seems like an odd omission:

One thing to note here is that fonts purchased through the Galaxy Store should still work fine. Samsung’s validation system targets unofficial third-party font packages specifically, not paid fonts that users bought legitimately.

It's literally just patching a security vulnerability.
