This vulnerability, listed on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, allows a locally present attacker to achieve code execution with elevated privileges on Android devices. While the exact initial access vector is not specified, exploitation typically occurs once an attacker has established a presence on the device, such as through a malicious application or by chaining with another vulnerability. The vulnerability's presence in the core Android Framework means it impacts a broad range of Android versions, necessitating urgent patching as mandated by CISA BOD 22-01 by June 5, 2026. This allows attackers to gain deeper control over the device, bypass security mechanisms, and access sensitive user data.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Access\u003c/strong\u003e: The attacker gains local access to the Android device, potentially via a malicious application, compromised user account, or a separate vulnerability leading to remote code execution.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVulnerability Trigger\u003c/strong\u003e: The attacker crafts a specific malicious input or sequence of operations that targets the vulnerable integer overflow in the Android Framework.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInteger Overflow\u003c/strong\u003e: The crafted input causes an integer overflow condition within a privileged component of the Android Framework, leading to unexpected memory behavior.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemory Corruption\u003c/strong\u003e: The integer overflow results in memory corruption, which the attacker can manipulate to achieve arbitrary read/write primitives or control the program's execution flow.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCode Injection and Execution\u003c/strong\u003e: The attacker injects and executes malicious code within the context of the vulnerable Android Framework component, often running with higher privileges.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrivilege Escalation\u003c/strong\u003e: The executed code leverages the elevated privileges to access protected system resources, modify critical system configurations, or elevate its own process privileges.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePost-Exploitation Activity\u003c/strong\u003e: The attacker might then install persistent backdoors, extract sensitive data from the device, or disable security features.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull Device Compromise\u003c/strong\u003e: The attacker gains full control over the compromised Android device, impacting user privacy and data integrity.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of CVE-2025-48595 leads to local privilege escalation, granting an attacker significant control over the affected Android device. This can result in unauthorized access to sensitive user data (e.g., contacts, messages, photos, financial app data), installation of additional malware, bypassing of security controls, and complete compromise of the device's integrity. While specific victim counts or targeted sectors are not detailed, the widespread adoption of Android devices means this vulnerability poses a risk to a vast global user base across all sectors. The consequences can range from data theft and surveillance to financial fraud and device bricking.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"recommendation\"\u003eRecommendation\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply the latest security updates released by Android or your device manufacturer that address CVE-2025-48595 as soon as they become available, referenced in \u003ccode\u003ehttps://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/2026/2026-06-01\u003c/code\u003e.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplement endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions capable of monitoring Android process creation and file events to identify post-exploitation activities, correlating with the Sigma rules provided in this brief.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonitor for suspicious process spawning from system services or unexpected privilege escalation utility execution using the \u003ccode\u003eDetect Suspicious Process Execution from Android System Services (CVE-2025-48595)\u003c/code\u003e and \u003ccode\u003eDetect Privilege Escalation Utilities Execution on Android (CVE-2025-48595)\u003c/code\u003e Sigma rules.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeploy the \u003ccode\u003eDetect Unauthorized Android System File Modification (CVE-2025-48595)\u003c/code\u003e Sigma rule to identify anomalous modifications to critical system files or directories on Android devices.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure compliance with CISA Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01 for all applicable systems and services.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e\n","date_modified":"2026-10-29T05:59:51Z","date_published":"2026-06-14T08:57:22Z","id":"https://feed.craftedsignal.io/briefs/2026-06-android-framework-rce/","summary":"An integer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2025-48595) in the Android Framework allows for local code execution, potentially leading to privilege escalation on affected Android devices by a locally present attacker.","title":"Android Framework Integer Overflow Vulnerability (CVE-2025-48595) Leading to Local Privilege Escalation","url":"https://feed.craftedsignal.io/briefs/2026-06-android-framework-rce/"}],"language":"en","title":"CraftedSignal Threat Feed - Android","version":"https://jsonfeed.org/version/1.1"}
