Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions prior to the fixed version
Description The issue is caused by an integer underflow in the system call handler of the Android operating system, leading to a buffer overflow. This could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
Recommendations For Android versions prior to the fixed version, consider applying configuration changes to minimize the risk of exploitation, such as restricting access to system calls until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
