In getItemList of SettingsFragment.java, there is a possible user interaction bypass due to misleading or insufficient UI. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in Android's Settings app (SettingsFragment.java) affects Android 14 through 17, including 16-qpr2, allowing a low-privileged local attacker to gain full device control via misleading or insufficient UI in the getItemList method. No victim interaction is required - the attacker's own low-privileged app or session is sufficient to trigger the UI bypass. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires local access to a device running Android 14, 15, 16, 16-qpr2, or 17 with at least low-privilege execution - meaning a malicious app installed by the user or a user session on the device. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (High) with vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H reflects a realistic local privilege escalation with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact - consistent with gaining elevated system or root-equivalent access on the device. … 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 | Apply the September 2026 Android Security Bulletin patches (patch level 2026-09-01 or later), available via the vendor advisory at https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/2026/2026-09-01. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory and segment Android devices running affected versions (14-17, including 16-qpr2) to identify exposure scope and restrict physical access to high-value devices where possible. …
