CVE-2026-0175: Google Pixel key authorization bypass in wrapped key import

CVE-2026-0175 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

Google Pixel devices use cryptographic key management components to protect sensitive data and operations. A logic error in wrapped key import allows an attacker to bypass authorization policies for cryptographic keys, potentially leading to privilege escalation on the device without needing special system access or user interaction.

Technologies: Google Pixel Devices. Vendors: Google.
