CVE-2025-22412
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedIn multiple functions of sdp_server.cc, there is a possible use after free due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to remote (proximal/adjacent) code execution with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceA use-after-free vulnerability exists in multiple functions of sdp_server.cc, a Bluetooth Service Discovery Protocol server component. Due to a logic error in memory management, a pointer to freed memory is accessed after deallocation, potentially allowing an attacker in proximal/adjacent network range to achieve remote code execution without requiring elevated privileges or user interaction.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Android OS versionRun 'getprop ro.build.version.release' or check Settings > About Phone > Android versionAffected if The version is exactly 15.0 (not 15.0.1, 14.x, 16.x, etc.)
-
Verify Bluetooth is enabledCheck if Bluetooth adapter is powered on via 'settings list global bluetooth_enabled' or in system settingsAffected if Bluetooth is enabled and the device is discoverable or connected to other Bluetooth devices
-
Confirm SDP server component presenceCheck for bluetooth.sdp service running: 'dumpsys bluetooth_manager' or review system logs for sdp_server activityAffected if The Bluetooth stack with SDP server component is active on the device
-
Assess network proximity exposureReview if device is in discoverable/connectable mode or paired with nearby devices in untrusted environmentsAffected if The device accepts Bluetooth connections from proximal/adjacent attackers without additional authentication
The device is affected only if it is running Android version 15.0 exactly and has Bluetooth enabled with the SDP server accessible to proximal attackers.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply the vendor-provided patch for CVE-2025-22412 to fix the memory management logic in the affected sdp_server.cc functions. If no patch is available, consider network segmentation to limit proximal/adjacent attack surface.
