CVE-2025-32325
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 appendFrom of Parcel.cpp, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a heap buffer overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege 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 analysisData overflows a buffer allocated on the heap, corrupting neighbouring heap structures and allocator metadata that a patient attacker can groom into control of execution. It is subtler than a stack overflow but just as dangerous. The fix is validating lengths before every write and using safe allocators and bounded operations.

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.
dbcve · scopedLatest Android Security Patch Level (post-commit 96f0dd71bc07051e4faae44abf7121a3f7b5b2aa)
- 1. Apply the vendor patch commit 96f0dd71bc07051e4faae44abf7121a3f7b5b2aa to the Android framework native library
- 2. This fix addresses the heap buffer overflow in the appendFrom function of Parcel.cpp
- 3. Rebuild the affected Android system image with the patched frameworks/native code
- 4. Flash the updated system image to affected devices running Android 13.0, 14.0, 15.0, or 16.0
- 5. Verify the fix by confirming the patched Parcel.cpp no longer contains the vulnerable appendFrom code path
