29<p>We have released a security update to Nexus devices through an over-the-air
30(OTA) update as part of our Android Security Bulletin Monthly Release process.
31The Nexus firmware images have also been released to the
32<a href="https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images">Google Developer site</a>.
33Builds LMY49H or later and Android M with Security Patch Level of March 01, 2016 or later
34address these issues. Refer to the
35<a href="https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4457705">Nexus documentation</a>
36for instructions on how to check the security patch level.</p>
37
38<p>Partners were notified about the issues described in the bulletin on February
391, 2016 or earlier. Where applicable, source code patches for these issues have been
40released to the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) repository.</p>
41
42<p>The most severe of these issues is a Critical security vulnerability that could
43enable remote code execution on an affected device through multiple methods
44such as email, web browsing, and MMS when processing media files.</p>
45
46<p>We have had no reports of active customer exploitation of these newly reported
47issues. Refer to the <a href="#mitigations">Mitigations</a> section for details on the
48<a href="{@docRoot}security/enhancements/index.html">Android security platform protections</a>
49and service protections such as SafetyNet, which improve the security of the
50Android platform. We encourage all customers to accept these updates to their
51devices.</p>

53<h2 id=security_vulnerability_summary>Security Vulnerability Summary</h2>
54
55<p>The table below contains a list of security vulnerabilities, the Common
56Vulnerability and Exposures ID (CVE), and their assessed severity. The
57<a href="{@docRoot}security/overview/updates-resources.html#severity">severity assessment</a>
58is based on the effect that exploiting the vulnerability would possibly have
59on an affected device, assuming the platform and service mitigations are
60disabled for development purposes or if successfully bypassed.</p>

154<h3 id=mitigations>Mitigations</h3>
155
156
157<p>This is a summary of the mitigations provided by the
158<a href="{@docRoot}security/enhancements/index.html">Android security platform</a>
159and service protections such as SafetyNet. These capabilities reduce the
160likelihood that security vulnerabilities could be successfully exploited on
161Android.</p>
162
163<ul>
164  <li> Exploitation for many issues on Android is made more difficult by enhancements
165in newer versions of the Android platform. We encourage all users to update to
166the latest version of Android where possible.
167  <li> The Android Security team is actively monitoring for abuse with Verify Apps and
168SafetyNet which will warn about potentially harmful applications about to be
169installed. Device rooting tools are prohibited within Google Play. To protect
170users who install applications from outside of Google Play, Verify Apps is
171enabled by default and will warn users about known rooting applications. Verify
172Apps attempts to identify and block installation of known malicious
173applications that exploit a privilege escalation vulnerability. If such an
174application has already been installed, Verify Apps will notify the user and
175attempt to remove any such applications.
176  <li> As appropriate, Google Hangouts and Messenger applications do not automatically
177pass media to processes such as mediaserver.

201
202
203<p>In the sections below, we provide details for each of the security
204vulnerabilities listed in the <a href="#security_vulnerability_summary">Security Vulnerability Summary</a> above. There is a description of the issue, a severity rationale, and a table
205with the CVE, associated bug, severity, affected versions, and date reported.
206When available, we will link the AOSP change that addressed the issue to the
207bug ID. When multiple changes relate to a single bug, additional AOSP
208references are linked to numbers following the bug ID.</p>

210<h3 id=remote_code_execution_vulnerability_in_mediaserver>Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in Mediaserver</h3>
211
212
213<p>During media file and data processing of a specially crafted file,
214vulnerabilities in mediaserver could allow an attacker to cause memory
215corruption and remote code execution as the mediaserver process.</p>
216
217<p>The affected functionality is provided as a core part of the operating system,
218and there are multiple applications that allow it to be reached with remote
219content, most notably MMS and browser playback of media.</p>
220
221<p>This issue is rated as a Critical severity due to the possibility of remote
222code execution within the context of the mediaserver service. The mediaserver
223service has access to audio and video streams as well as access to privileges
224that third-party apps could not normally access.</p>

375enable a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the
376kernel. This issue is rated as a Critical severity due to the possibility of a
377local permanent device compromise and the device could potentially only be

439kernel driver that could enable a local malicious application to execute
440arbitrary code within the context of the kernel. Normally a kernel code execution
441bug like this would be rated critical, but because it requires first compromising
442the conn_launcher service, it justifies a downgrade to High severity rating.
