Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
Local escalation of privilege in the Android kernel's ARM SMMU v3 driver lets a process that already runs with System privileges reach kernel-level code execution by passing malformed input to the nested device-detach path (smmu_detach_dev_nested in arm-smmu-v3.c). Because the CVSS vector requires PR:H, this is not a boundary an ordinary unprivileged app can cross — it is a second-stage escalation for code that already holds highly privileged, kernel-adjacent access on the device. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV, so risk is driven by the monthly Android/Pixel kernel patch cycle rather than by observed attacks; no EPSS score was supplied in the input data.
