Use after free in DualDAR prior to SMR Sep-2026 Release 1 allows local privileged attackers to execute arbitrary code with root privilege.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation to root in Samsung's DualDAR (Dual Data-at-Rest) encryption component affects Samsung mobile devices running Android 14, 15, 16, and 17 prior to the SMR (Samsung Maintenance Release) Sep-2026 Release 1. A use-after-free condition lets a local attacker who already holds elevated privileges execute arbitrary code as root, fully compromising the device. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires local access to the device and pre-existing high privileges (CVSS PR:H, AV:L) - the attacker must control a privileged process capable of reaching the DualDAR component, and the DualDAR (Dual Data-at-Rest) encryption feature must be present/active on the target. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3 is driven by the scope/subsequent-system impact metrics (SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) plus full VC:H/VI:H/VA:H, but the vector itself qualifies the real-world risk: AV:L means physical or local shell access is required, and PR:H means the attacker must already hold high privileges before exploiting - this is a privilege-escalation/sandbox-breakout primitive, not a remote drive-by. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: SMR Sep-2026 Release 1 - apply the September 2026 Samsung Maintenance Release firmware update to all affected Android 14/15/16/17 Galaxy devices via System Update or your MDM/Knox management console, per Samsung's bulletin at https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb?year=2026&month=09. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all Samsung mobile devices running Android 14-17 in your enterprise environment, determine affected device count, and note any devices running applications requiring elevated privileges. …
