Severity by source
AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Requires prior local code execution (AV:L/PR:L); multiple overflow sites make triggering straightforward (AC:L); successful privilege escalation yields full device control (C:H/I:H/A:H).
Primary rating from Vendor (android).

Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
In multiple locations, there is a possible memory safety issue due to integer overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges required.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation affects Android versions 16, 16-qpr2, and 17 via heap-based buffer overflow triggered by integer overflow in multiple framework locations. An attacker with basic local code execution (low-privileged app or shell) can exploit the memory safety flaw - requiring no additional privileges or user interaction - to gain full control of the device, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires local code execution on an Android 16, 16-QPR2, or 17 device - meaning the attacker must have an installed application or interactive shell session with at least low-privilege user-level access. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.8 (High) rating is well-calibrated for this class of vulnerability: local privilege escalation with full CIA impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) but bounded by requiring prior code execution on the device (AV:L/PR:L). … 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 via the standard Android OTA update mechanism or vendor security patch level update. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all organizational devices running Android 16, 16-qpr2, or 17 to establish baseline exposure. …
