CVE-2023-21124 is a security vulnerability discovered in Android operating systems affecting versions 11 through 13. The vulnerability involves unsafe deserialization in the execution of multiple files, which could potentially lead to local escalation of privilege. The issue was disclosed in June 2023 and was assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 (High severity) (NVD).
The vulnerability stems from unsafe deserialization operations in multiple files within the Android system. The CVSS v3.1 vector string is CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, indicating local access vector, low attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction needed, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (NVD).
The vulnerability allows an attacker to achieve local escalation of privilege on affected Android devices. No additional execution privileges are needed for exploitation, and user interaction is not required. This could potentially give attackers elevated access to system resources and sensitive data (NVD).
Google has addressed this vulnerability in the June 2023 Android Security Bulletin. Users should update their Android devices to the latest available security patch level to protect against this vulnerability (Android Security Bulletin).
