A logic error in the Vulkan decoder of the Android emulator lets a guest virtual machine read host code pointers. An attacker inside the guest can use that leak to escalate privileges locally, with no user interaction needed.

The flaw is in the Vulkan decoder of an Android-style virtual machine host, so it affects systems that run guest VMs with that graphics path enabled. The sources do not name the exact product or versions affected. Teams not running such a hypervisor or emulator are not exposed.

In on_vkUpdateDescriptorSetWithTemplateSized2GOOGLE of vk_decoder_global_state.cpp, there is a possible way to leak host code pointers to a guest virtual machine due to a logic error. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
