## Technical details

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in the 'validateNode' function within 'ResourceTypes.cpp' of the Android Framework. The flaw is caused by an incorrect bounds check when processing resource nodes. A local attacker can exploit this vulnerability to achieve escalation of privilege (EoP) without needing any specific execution privileges or user interaction. The vulnerability affects Android versions 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2. A fix is available as part of the June 2026 Android Security Bulletin (patch level 2026-06-05).
