An out-of-bounds write in the Write function of msg_to_host_buffer.cc allows local escalation of privilege without user interaction on affected Pixel devices.
Vulnerability
In the Write function of msg_to_host_buffer.cc, an incorrect bounds check leads to an out-of-bounds write. This vulnerability affects Pixel devices running Android versions prior to the 2026-06-05 security patch level [1].

The attacker requires local access to the device but no additional execution privileges. By triggering the flawed code path with a crafted input, the out-of-bounds write can be exploited without any user interaction [1].
Impact
Successful exploitation results in local escalation of privilege, enabling the attacker to write data beyond the allocated buffer bounds, potentially leading to arbitrary memory corruption or elevated system access [1].
Mitigation
Google has addressed this vulnerability in the Pixel security patch level 2026-06-05. Users should apply the available update from Google. No workaround is documented [1].
