CVE-2022-20607

Status: ModifiedHigh (8.8)—💥 PoC

In the Pixel cellular firmware, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote code execution with LTE authentication needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-238914868References: N/A

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.

⚠️ GitHub proofs of concept are not verified: some are fake or contain malware. Never run them outside an isolated lab.
