Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-26438 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Google Android. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26438/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26438/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-26438","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-26438/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-26438","record":{"aliases":["A-251514171","ASB-A-251514171","GHSA-4462-gvjv-pqm2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Android OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass SMP authentication in Android to escalate privileges without user interaction or additional execution rights.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"google_android","cpe":[{"product":"android","vendor":"google"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"In smp_process_secure_connection_oob_data of smp_act.cc, there is a possible way to bypass SMP authentication due to Incorrect implementation of a protocol.
