AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Local vector and System-privilege prerequisite fix AV:L/PR:H/UI:N; I retain the vendor's C/I/A:H though they are generous given the attacker already runs as System.

In multiple locations, there is a possible permission bypass due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
AnalysisAI
Permission bypass logic errors in Google Android allow a local actor who already holds System-level execution privileges to gain further privileges on affected devices, including Pixel handsets addressed by the September 2026 Android Security Bulletin. The flaw stems from a protection-mechanism failure in which permission checks in unspecified locations are skipped, requiring only local access and no user interaction; an attacker cannot use it for initial compromise or to escalate from an ordinary unprivileged app, since System privileges are a hard prerequisite. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to ALREADY hold System execution privileges on the affected Android/Pixel device (per the description and PR:H) and to reach one of the unspecified 'multiple locations' where a logic error skips a permission check. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but low-priority issue. … 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 vendor fix by updating affected Android/Pixel devices to a build that includes the September 2026 Android Security Bulletin for Pixel, 2026-09-01, per https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/pixel/2026/2026-09-01; because the bulletin is the authoritative source for device-specific builds, verify the device's Android security patch level after updating rather than relying on a generic platform version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
