The first part of the update, the ‘2022-11-01 patch level’, includes fixes for 17 security defects, 12 of which could lead to escalation of privilege (EoP), three to denial of service (DoS), and two leading to information disclosure.
All of these are high-severity vulnerabilities impacting Android 10 and newer releases. Except for one bug, all of them impact Android 13 as well.
“The most severe of these issues is a high security vulnerability in the Framework component that could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed,” Google notes in its advisory.
