CVE-2022-20177Network attack vector

Information disclosure through undisclosed modem flaw

Published Jun 15, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Information disclosure in Android's Pixel modem component allows attackers to read unspecified data via unspecified vectors. Google lists the issue as a nonpublic Pixel modem flaw and has not disclosed the affected function, faulty operation, or exposed data. The bulletin does not publish required privileges, user interaction, or reachability, so exposure cannot be bounded beyond supported Pixel devices.
