Description
In importWrappedKey of KMKeymasterApplet.java, there is a possible way access keys that should be restricted due to improper input validation. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

AI Analysis

Impact

The KMKeymasterApplet implementation in Android contains an input validation flaw in its importWrappedKey routine. An attacker able to supply crafted data to this method can retrieve cryptographic keys that were intended to remain inaccessible. The vulnerability does not require elevated privileges or any user interaction, meaning a local adversary or malicious application can exploit it directly on the device. While the compromise remains limited to key material, the disclosure can enable the attacker to decrypt stored data or impersonate the device.

Affected Systems

Android devices whose operating system contains the unpatched KMKeymasterApplet are affected. No specific OS releases are enumerated in the advisory, implying that all versions lacking the fix remain vulnerable until an over‑the‑air update or manual patch is applied by Google.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS vector indicates low severity with a score of 4.0, and the EPSS value is below 1 %, suggesting a very low likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is absent from the CISA keV catalog, indicating no known active exploitation. A local attacker or any code executing on the device can trigger the flaw, but remote exploitation or privilege escalation is not supported by the description.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest Android security patch or complete OTA update from Google
  • If no update is available, restrict execution of applications that may interact with the keymaster service until a fix is released
  • Verify that no rogue or unsigned applications are installed that could abuse the keymaster
