quoting#GrapheneOS receives third Android Security Acknowledgement from Google this year. This time for a high-severity Bluetooth vulnerability:

Google has listed the CVE-2024-23694 vulnerability we reported in the security acknowledgements for May 2024:
https://source.android.com/docs/security/overview/acknowledgements
This is the Bluetooth issue we found with memory tagging which they assigned a High severity. We fixed this on March 9th. This vulnerability isn't listed in the baseline Android Security Bulletin despite being an Android Open Source Project issue. It will likely be listed in the Pixel Update Bulletin which should be today with the monthly update of AOSP and the Pixel OS.
This vulnerability only impacts Android 14 QPR2 and later. It's possible they only list issues impacting the initial release of Android 14 in Android Security Bulletins and put the rest in Pixel bulletins. It's odd how Pixel bulletins are mostly issues impacting other devices.
Last month, Pixels fixed 2 vulnerabilities we reported which were both classified as High severity and were both exploited in the wild by forensic companies to extract data on smartphones. Both also impact non-Pixels but were only fixed for Pixels and listed in the Pixel bulletin.
We understand why they didn't list those firmware patches in the Android Security Bulletin (ASB) since other devices with the same issues need their own unique firmware patches for them.
The AOSP 14 QPR2 Bluetooth big not being listed means ASB is less complete than we thought though.
