FAQ

Questions about CVE-2026-58853

What does this mean?

The bug is in ipphelper.c, where several functions lack a bounds check, allowing a stack buffer overflow. The advisory lists it as an elevation of privilege issue rated High.Source: source.android.com

Am I affected, and how do I check?

The facts give no affected version ranges or setup conditions, so the source does not say which Android builds are affected. Compare the installed Android version with the fixed releases 14, 15, 16, 16-qpr2 and 17.Source: source.android.com

What should I do about it?

Install the fixed Android build for the release line in use: 14, 15, 16, 16-qpr2, or 17, as listed in the advisory. No workaround is listed.Source: source.android.com

Is it being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
