# Android: memory corruption in shared memory allocator enables local privilege escalation

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-56995 (this .md is for agents)

Multiple locations allow corruption of host allocator metadata in shared memory, caused by a memory corruption flaw. A local attacker with System-level execution can escalate privileges, and no user interaction is needed.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## From the sources

In multiple locations, there is a possible way to corrupt host allocator metadata in shared memory due to memory corruption. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
