Android Framework Integer Overflow Local Privilege Escalation

IdentifiersCVE-2025-48595CWE-190· Integer Overflow or Wraparound

CVE-2025-48595 is a high-severity integer overflow vulnerability in the Android Framework. According to the provided Android advisory text, the flaw exists in multiple locations and can permit code execution due to an integer overflow condition. Successful exploitation can then lead to local escalation of privilege on affected devices. The issue affects Android 14, 15, 16, and Android 16 QPR2 / 16-qpr2. The vulnerable code paths are not identified in the provided content beyond being in the Framework component and occurring in multiple locations.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Successful exploitation can provide arbitrary code execution in the context of the vulnerable Android Framework paths and enable local privilege escalation on the device. The provided CVSS vector and supporting reporting indicate high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, meaning an attacker may gain elevated access to device resources and sensitive data and potentially achieve near-complete control of the affected device.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Until patches are fully deployed, reduce exposure by limiting installation of untrusted or unverified applications, enforcing Google Play Protect, restricting sideloading through MDM/EMM policy, and monitoring managed devices for anomalous privilege-escalation behavior. Prioritize rapid patch rollout for high-risk users and managed Android fleets because the vulnerability is reported as under limited, targeted exploitation.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Apply the June 2026 Android security updates from Google or the relevant device OEM. The provided content indicates that fixes are included in the June 2026 Android Security Bulletin, with patch levels 2026-06-01 and 2026-06-05, and that devices at security patch level 2026-06-05 or later address all listed issues. Managed fleets should enforce installation of the latest available OEM update containing the June 2026 Android fixes.
