Local privilege escalation via missing command authorization
Published Jan 4, 2023 · Updated Apr 10, 2025
Command injection in network service on affected UNISOC chipsets running Android 10 through 12 allows local users to gain elevated privileges. The service omits an authorization check, but UNISOC has not disclosed the affected function or how untrusted input reaches command execution. Exploitation requires local access and existing System execution privileges, and command execution occurs within the network service security context.
