CVE-2025-48595: Elevation of privilege in Google Android
CVE-2025-48595 is a high-severity elevation of privilege vulnerability in Google Android versions 14 through 16-qpr2. It arises from an integer overflow in multiple locations that can lead to code execution locally without requiring user interaction or additional privileges.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves an integer overflow in multiple locations within Google Android, allowing an attacker to achieve local code execution and escalate privileges without needing prior execution privileges or user interaction. The CVSS 3.1 score is 8.4, indicating high severity with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The affected versions explicitly include Android 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2. No official patch or remediation level has been published yet, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges, compromising system confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No user interaction is required, increasing the risk of exploitation in local attack scenarios.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict local access to trusted users and monitor for suspicious activity related to privilege escalation attempts.
