Summary

CVE-2024-0029 is a high-severity Protection Mechanism Failure (CWE-693) vulnerability in Google Android. Its CVSS base score is 7.8 (High).

Operationally, ranked at the 3th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

In multiple files, there is a possible way to capture the device screen when disallowed by device policy due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed.…

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-3 directly requires enforcement of access authorizations via the protection mechanism itself.

AC-4 mandates use of information flow enforcement mechanisms to control data movement.

SC-2 requires separation of user and system functionality as a protection mechanism.

SC-28 requires protection mechanisms for information at rest.

SC-3 requires isolation of security functions from non-security functions.

SC-7 requires boundary protection mechanisms to monitor and control external communications.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

finds

Systematic verification that security mechanisms operate according to defined standards reduces the likelihood that protection mechanisms are bypassed or disabled.

removes

A.8.26 only requires that security requirements (including protection mechanisms) be identified and specified during development or acquisition; it does not itself mandate, implement, or enforce the mechanisms that would remove CWE-693 instances from the product.

removes

A.8.28 mandates secure coding practices, principles, standards, design, peer review, defect removal, prohibition of insecure techniques (e.g. hard-coded passwords), and evaluation of common errors before deployment, which directly removes many instances of missing or incorrectly used protection mechanisms from first-party code; the bounded remainder is third-party components and post-deployment issues handled by other clauses (8.8, 8.29).

Hardening callouts derived

DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.

  • No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-693, a pillar-level weakness. Rules are authored against its narrower children: CWE-654, CWE-757.
