Below are a few of the secrets that I've found so far. Flock cameras run on a modified version of Android. The specific build that this Flock camera was running at the point in time the firmware was extracted was from June 5, 2025.

Despite being a relatively recent build, the Flock camera was running Android 8.1. This version of Android was released in 2017, and officially stopped getting support from Google in 2021 (see the Android end-of-life page for more info). And despite Google publishing security fixes for Android 8.1 until 2021, the Android patch level is 2018-06-05. This camera is missing Android security updates for the last eight years.
