Local unprivileged app, no UI (AV:L/PR:N/UI:N); an out-of-bounds read most directly yields C:H, with I/A downgraded to L since the primitive is a read, not confirmed corruption.

DescriptionCVE.org

In multiple files, there is a possible out-of-bounds read due to type confusion. 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 Google Android affects Pixel builds addressed by the 2026-09-01 Android/Pixel security bulletin, where an unprivileged app already running on the device can trigger an out-of-bounds read caused by type confusion and potentially gain elevated code execution. The issue is locally reachable with no user interaction and no prior privileges (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), but an attacker must first get malicious code onto the device, so exposure is largely limited to users who sideload apps or run compromised applications. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires local execution on the affected Android/Pixel device - an attacker-controlled unprivileged app running on a vulnerable build; there is no remote or network path (AV:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a local escalation-of-privilege flaw in Android (Pixel/Tensor components per the 2026-09-01 Pixel bulletin) driven by an out-of-bounds read stemming from type confusion (CWE-441, confused deputy). … 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 available per vendor advisory: apply the Android/Pixel security bulletin dated 2026-09-01 (https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/pixel/2026/2026-09-01), which is the authoritative source and the point at which fixed builds ship - no exact fixed build or kernel version is specified in the available data, so verify the device's security patch level against that bulletin rather than assuming a version number. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all Google Pixel devices running Android builds covered by the 2026-09-01 Android/Pixel security bulletin (no vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis). …
