Local privilege escalation via undisclosed use-after-free
Published Sep 4, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Use-after-free memory corruption in Google Cloud Android Widevine DRM allows local users to escalate privileges without interaction. Multiple undisclosed locations access memory after its lifetime has ended, permitting corruption within the DRM component. A low-privileged local foothold is required, and successful exploitation grants elevated device privileges; the affected functions and trigger path are not public.
