    Framework exploitation assessment for Android vulnerabilities

    Technical Analysis Update

    Google said the Framework vulnerabilities CVE-2025-48633 and CVE-2025-48572 had been exploited in the wild and may be under limited, targeted exploitation, but it did not release additional details about the attack methods, whether the flaws were chained, or the scale of the activity. The December 2025 bulletin therefore combines patch release details with a restrained exploitation assessment for the affected Android Framework issues.
