Description The issue is caused by an integer overflow, leading to a buffer overflow in memory. This could allow a remote attacker to bypass existing access control policies. The vulnerability may be exploited due to improper input validation.
Recommendations For Qualcomm Secure Execution Environment, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
