HighMetricsAV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Android kernel
Description
The issue is related to a possible out of bounds write in the
eicOpsDecryptAes128Gcm function of acropora/app/identity/identity support.c due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Recommendations
For Android kernel, consider applying a patch that includes a bounds check in the
eicOpsDecryptAes128Gcm function to prevent out of bounds writes. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to sensitive areas of the system to minimize the risk of exploitation. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
