Noroxi assessment

Priority: Plan (action score 52/100)

  • CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Dec 2, 2025). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Dec 23, 2025.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.26% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.

Add it to your regular patch cycle. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · CISA KEV · FIRST EPSS

In hasAccountsOnAnyUser of DevicePolicyManagerService.java, there is a possible way to add a Device Owner after provisioning due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

Actively exploited in the wild

CISA added this to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on Dec 2, 2025. That signals real attacks, not theory.

Remediation deadline for government agencies: Dec 23, 2025.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
