Lifecycle Timeline
6DescriptionCVE.org
In multiple locations, there is a possible use after free due to a logic error in the code. 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 via use-after-free in Android 16-QPR2 and Android 17 allows a low-privileged local attacker to gain full system access with no user interaction required. The vulnerability arises from a logic error present at multiple code locations within the Android codebase, triggering a use-after-free condition that corrupts memory and enables privilege elevation to system or root level. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires local code execution on an Android device running Android 16-QPR2 or Android 17, with at minimum standard user-level (low) privileges - confirmed by CVSS PR:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H scores 7.8 - High - indicating a reliably exploitable local privilege escalation with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact once the attacker has code execution on the target 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 security patches distributed through the September 2026 Android Security Bulletin (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, audit your device inventory to identify the count and criticality of systems running Android 16-QPR2 or Android 17, and restrict local user account provisioning on these devices where operational requirements permit. …
