Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE-2025-26464 is a cybersecurity vulnerability that pertains to a logic error present within the executeAppFunction of the AppSearchManagerService.java. This flaw may enable a malicious actor to launch background activities leading to local privilege escalation, thus potentially compromising the system or leading to data leakage. The seriousness and potential implications of this vulnerability<\/a> mean it is crucial for all users of affected products to apply patches and mitigate the risk promptly.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2025-26464
\nSeverity: High (7.8 CVSS Score)
\nAttack Vector: Local
\nPrivileges Required: None
\nUser Interaction: None
\nImpact: Potential system compromise<\/a> or data leakage<\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

Java | All prior versions to 2025 patch
\nAndroid | All versions using AppSearchManagerService.java prior to 2025 patch<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vulnerability resides in the executeAppFunction of AppSearchManagerService.java, in which there is a logic error. This flaw allows an attacker to launch background activities without requiring additional execution privileges or user interaction, leading to local escalation of privilege<\/a>. The exploit could result in unauthorized access to system<\/a> resources, data leakage, or full system compromise if left unchecked.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

A conceptual example of this vulnerability might look like this:<\/p>\n

AppSearchManagerService service = new AppSearchManagerService();\nservice.executeAppFunction(\"malicious_activity\");<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this scenario, “malicious_activity” represents a nefarious function that the attacker has managed to inject<\/a> onto the system. Due to the logic error in executeAppFunction, this function could be executed, leading to the potential system<\/a> compromise or data leakage described above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
