Local unprivileged app (AV:L/PR:N/UI:N) bypasses a missing permission check for local EoP; I retain vendor C/I/A:H though these are generous for a permission bypass.

In multiple locations, there is a possible permission bypass due to a missing permission check. 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 the Android kernel allows an unprivileged app already running on a Pixel or other affected Android device to bypass a missing permission check and gain elevated privileges, resulting in full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 8.4, AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). Because the vector is local-only and requires the attacker to already execute code on the device, the exposure is limited to post-compromise or malicious-app scenarios rather than remote attacks, and no user interaction is needed once that foothold exists. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to already execute code as a local, unprivileged app on the affected Android/Pixel device (AV:L, PR:N); there is no remote vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor scores this 8.4 (High) with CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, meaning local access only but no privileges and no user interaction, with full C/I/A impact. … 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 | Patch status: Patch available per vendor advisory - Google's Pixel/Android security bulletin for September 2026 (https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/pixel/2026/2026-09-01), which establishes the 2026-09-01 security patch level as the remediation baseline; apply it via standard monthly OTA update on Pixel and other affected Android devices, and verify the patch level in Settings > About phone > Android version before considering the device remediated. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory the Android and Pixel security patch level on every managed device, flag all endpoints below 2026-09-01 for priority remediation, and verify that MDM policy blocks installation from unknown sources and disables sideloading. …
