MetricsAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions 6.0 through 8.1
Description The issue is related to improper input validation in the processMessagePart function of InboundSmsHandler.java, which can lead to a remote denial of service. This can be exploited without requiring additional execution privileges or user interaction.
Recommendations For Android versions 6.0 through 8.1, consider restricting the functionality of the InboundSmsHandler to minimize the risk of exploitation until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, disabling the processMessagePart function could help mitigate the issue.
