Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 26 Aug 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-0093, European organizations should prioritize the following actions: 1) Monitor for official patches or updates from Google and Android device manufacturers and deploy them promptly across all affected devices. 2) Implement strict Bluetooth usage policies, including disabling Bluetooth when not in use and restricting pairing to trusted devices only. 3) Educate users about the risks of interacting with unknown Bluetooth devices and the importance of cautious behavior regarding pairing requests or prompts. 4) Employ mobile device management (MDM) solutions to enforce security configurations, monitor Bluetooth activity, and restrict installation of unauthorized apps that could facilitate exploitation. 5) Conduct regular security assessments and penetration tests focusing on Bluetooth attack vectors to identify and remediate potential exposure. 6) Where possible, segment networks and isolate critical systems from devices that may be vulnerable to Bluetooth-based attacks. 7) Enhance endpoint detection and response (EDR) capabilities to detect anomalous Bluetooth-related activities that could indicate exploitation attempts.

Description

In handleBondStateChanged of AdapterService.java, there is a possible unapproved data access due to a missing permission check. This could lead to remote information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.

Impact

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-0093 could be significant, especially for enterprises relying on Android devices for business operations, communications, or as part of their IoT infrastructure. The information disclosure could lead to leakage of sensitive corporate data, user credentials, or device metadata, which could facilitate further targeted attacks or espionage. Organizations with employees using vulnerable Android devices in proximity to untrusted Bluetooth devices or networks are at risk. This is particularly relevant for sectors with high data sensitivity such as finance, healthcare, government, and critical infrastructure. The requirement for user interaction somewhat limits the risk but does not eliminate it, as social engineering or phishing techniques could be used to trick users into enabling the exploit. Additionally, the widespread use of Android devices across Europe means that the attack surface is large. The vulnerability could also impact consumer privacy, which is a critical concern under the GDPR framework, potentially leading to regulatory and reputational consequences if personal data is exposed.

CWE-732Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource (opens in a new tab)
Class weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighOWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The product specifies permissions for a security-critical resource in a way that allows that resource to be read or modified by unintended actors.
Implementation
When using a critical resource such as a configuration file, check to see if the resource has insecure permissions (such as being modifiable by any regular user), and generate an error or even exit the software if there is a possibility that the resource could have been modified by an unauthorized party.
Architecture and Design
Divide the software into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully defining distinct user groups, privileges, and/or roles. Map these against data, functionality, and the related resources. Then set the permissions accordingly.
Architecture and Design · Operation · Sandbox or Jail
Run the code in a "jail" or similar sandbox environment that enforces strict boundaries between the process and the operating system. This may effectively restrict which files can be accessed in a particular directory or which commands can be executed by the software.
