An elevation of privilege vulnerability in Audioserver could enable a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. This issue is rated as High because it could be used to gain local access to elevated capabilities, which are not normally accessible to a third-party application. Product: Android. Versions: 4.4.4, 5.0.2, 5.1.1, 6.0, 6.0.1, 7.0, 7.1.1. Android ID: A-32220769.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-0419 is an Android Audioserver privilege escalation. A malicious app already running on the device could execute code inside a privileged process, gaining capabilities normal third-party apps should not have. This is a local device risk, not described as remotely exploitable in the provided sources. Exposure is most likely on legacy Android devices that remain on the listed versions or lack the February 2017 Android security updates. Managed fleets, embedded Android devices, kiosks, and unsupported handsets are higher concern. Treat this as a high-priority legacy Android exposure issue. It is most urgent where older devices still handle sensitive data, run business workflows, or allow user-installed apps. The main decision is patch, replace, or isolate unsupported devices. Mitigation focus: Apply the relevant February 2017 Android security bulletin fixes or later vendor updates.; Retire or isolate Android devices that cannot receive security updates.; Restrict installation of untrusted applications on legacy Android devices..
