Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
Remote exploitation of the cellular modem stack in Google Android devices allows an attacker who controls the radio path to trigger a heap-based out-of-bounds write and escalate privileges on the handset, without any user interaction. The supplied CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 reflects high confidentiality, integrity and availability impact, but its PR:L metric (low privileges required) conflicts with the vendor description stating that no additional execution privileges are needed. No public exploit code, EPSS score, or CISA KEV entry was included in the intelligence feed, so active exploitation is unconfirmed at the time of analysis.

SSVC AssessmentENISA
Priority Score
Attack Technique
Privilege escalation occurs when an attacker leverages flaws in access control mechanisms to gain permissions beyond what they were originally granted.
A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
A heap overflow occurs when a program writes data beyond the bounds of a buffer allocated in the heap memory region.
