# CVE-2024-32896: Android Pixel Privilege Escalation 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 2024-06-13, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2024-07-04 ; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
- EPSS 3.0% , percentile 87: FIRST’s model estimates a 3.0% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 87% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.

## What it is

there is a possible way to bypass due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.

## Affected products (CVE record)

- Google Android: Android kernel

## Severity

- CISA-ADP CVSS 3.1: 8.1 `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: added 2024-06-13; federal due date 2024-07-04. 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 total .
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 2.99% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 87.
