I got this warning from play store when I was trying to update my Flutter on play store.

The developer of play-services-safetynet (com.google.android.gms:play-services-safetynet) has reported critical issues with version 17.0.0. Consider upgrading before publishing a new release.

Here's what the SDK developer told us:
The SafetyNet Attestation API is being discontinued and replaced by the new Play Integrity API. Begin migration as soon as possible to avoid user disruption. The Play Integrity API includes all the integrity signals that SafetyNet Attestation offers and more, like Google Play licensing and better error messaging. Learn more and start migrating at https://developer.android.com/training/safetynet/deprecation-timeline

I am not using safe-net implementation in my build.gradle file may be some thirdparty pulgin is using this but tried flutter upgrade also to ensure updating all packages. but still I am getting this critical warning from play store. If any body have solution please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Had same issue with Google Play for firebase Auth library. Unfortunately it did not have option to update to version that had updated Safetynet module. So had to find a working way to exclude the module from my project.

This is what I had:

dependencies {
    implementation platform('com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:30.3.2')
    implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth'
}

For my project the best option was to exclude the safetynet module from all libraries. Fow what ever reason, single library exclusion did not work.

dependencies {
    implementation platform('com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:30.3.2')
    implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth'
}
configurations.all {
    exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-safetynet'
}

The above solution should work for any project that has this issue regardless of what library actually has the safetynet module included.

For anyone interested, here are easy commands to check your projects dependencies in Android Studio Terminal (this writes them in txt file for easier reading):

./gradlew app:dependencies > dependencies.txt
