CVE-2016-8402

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions Kernel-3.10 through Kernel-3.18

Description The issue is related to a lack of protection for service data in the Android operating system kernel, specifically in the ION subsystem, Binder, USB driver, and networking subsystem. This could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or have other impacts on the system. It may also enable a local malicious application to access data outside of its permission levels, although this first requires compromising a privileged process.

Recommendations For Android versions Kernel-3.10 through Kernel-3.18, update to a version that includes the necessary security patches to resolve the issue. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
