AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a use‑after‑free bug in Android’s Bluetooth handler. A logic error can cause the callback to reference freed memory, letting an attacker execute arbitrary code. The flaw grants full code‑execution capability without requiring any privilege escalation and does not need the victim to interact with the device.

Affected Systems

Google Android devices that implement the affected Bluetooth firmware. No specific version information is supplied, so all Android platforms using this Bluetooth stack are potentially impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 9.8, indicating severe risk. The EPSS score is unavailable and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting it may not yet have seen widespread exploitation. Nevertheless, the attack vector is likely via an active Bluetooth connection, enabling an adversary to trigger the logic error from a remote device. Attackers could potentially run malicious code in the context of the Android system process that owns the Bluetooth stack.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Disable Bluetooth when it is not needed to eliminate the attack surface.
  • Apply any Android security patch that resolves the use‑after‑free bug as soon as it becomes available.
  • Configure the device to block or restrict untrusted Bluetooth connections, such as using device security settings or a trusted‑list policy.
