## FAQ

### What should I do about it?

Install an Android security update that includes the fix for the branch in use: 14, 15, 16, 16-qpr2, or 17. The facts give no workaround, so updating is the only listed remedy.

### 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.
