CVE-2026-55359: Elevation of privilege in Google Android
In multiple locations, there is a possible permission bypass due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with User execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from a logic error in multiple parts of the Android codebase that results in a possible permission bypass. An attacker with user-level execution privileges can exploit this flaw locally to escalate their privileges. No user interaction is necessary for exploitation. No CVSS score or detailed impact metrics are provided, and no affected versions or patch information is specified.
Potential Impact
The impact is a local elevation of privilege on affected Android devices, allowing an attacker with user execution privileges to gain higher privileges.
