**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Android versions prior to the fixed version **Description** The issue is related to an elevation of privilege vulnerability in the NVIDIA crypto driver, which could allow a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel. This problem is rated as High because it first requires compromising a privileged process. **Recommendations** For Android versions prior to the fixed version, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue to prevent potential exploitation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the NVIDIA crypto driver until a patch is available.
