# CVE-2024-29745: Android Pixel Information Disclosure Vulnerability

**Signal:** Exploited: patch now if you run it. CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- Yes, if you run Android Pixel. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2024-04-04, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2024-04-25 ; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
- EPSS 0.5% , percentile 41: FIRST’s model estimates a 0.5% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 41% of all scored CVEs (low). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs local access needed. Lower urgency for most teams unless an attacker could already run code on the machine.

## What it is

there is a possible Information Disclosure due to uninitialized data. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

## Affected products (CVE record)

- Google Android: Android kernel

## Severity

- CISA-ADP CVSS 3.1: 5.5 `CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: added 2024-04-04; federal due date 2024-04-25. Known ransomware use: Unknown.
- CISA required action: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
- CISA SSVC assessment: exploitation active , automatable no , technical impact partial .
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 0.49% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 41.
