CVE-2026-0079: Denial of service in Google Android
In multiple functions of ubsan_throwing_runtime.cpp, there is a possible persistent denial of service due to an integer overflow. This could lead to local denial of service with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from an integer overflow in multiple functions of the ubsan_throwing_runtime.cpp component in Google Android versions 14 to 16-qpr2. The overflow can cause a persistent denial of service condition locally, meaning an attacker with limited privileges can disrupt system availability without needing user interaction. The CVSS 3.1 score is 5.5 (medium), reflecting the local attack vector, low complexity, and no impact on confidentiality or integrity. No known exploits are reported in the wild, and no official remediation or patch has been announced by Google as of the published date.
Potential Impact
The impact is a local denial of service that can persist, potentially disrupting normal device operation. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity, and exploitation does not require user interaction or elevated privileges beyond local access. This could affect device availability for affected Android versions.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should limit local access to trusted parties and monitor for updates from Google regarding patches for this vulnerability.
