AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Local logic error needing existing System privileges (AV:L/PR:H), no UI or scope change; I retain C:H/I:H/A:H to match the vendor though impact is generous for an already-System attacker.

In addr_remap_address_map of remap.c, there is a possible escalation of privilege 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
Local privilege escalation in the Android kernel's address remapping code (addr_remap_address_map in remap.c) allows an attacker who already holds System-level execution privileges to further elevate their access on the device. The flaw is a logic error in mapping validation that constitutes a protection-mechanism failure (CWE-693); successful exploitation requires local access and high privileges (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N), with no user interaction, and yields high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires the attacker to already possess System execution privileges on the device and local access to reach the vulnerable addr_remap_address_map code path in remap.c; no user interaction is needed. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but bounded local privilege-escalation issue, not a top-tier emergency. … 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 | The primary fix is to apply the Android security patch level from Google's Pixel/Android security bulletin dated 2026-09-01 (https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/pixel/2026/2026-09-01), which bundles the kernel correction for addr_remap_address_map; no standalone patch version number is published in the available data, so deployments should verify the device reports the September 2026 patch level or later (NVD entry: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-55304). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
