CVE-2017-8141

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions P10 Plus smart phones with software versions earlier than VKY-AL00C00B153

Description The issue concerns a memory double free vulnerability in the Touch Panel driver. An attacker with root privilege of the Android system can trick a user into installing a malicious application. This application can start multiple threads and attempt to free specific memory, potentially triggering a double free condition. This could lead to a system crash or allow for arbitrary code execution.

Recommendations For P10 Plus smart phones with software versions earlier than VKY-AL00C00B153, update to a version VKY-AL00C00B153 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the installation of applications from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
