CVE-2014-9881: drivers/media/radio/radio-iris.c in the Qualcomm components in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 7 (2013)...

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-9881 is an Android Qualcomm driver flaw reported for Nexus 7 (2013) devices before the 2016-08-05 Android security level. A malicious app could trigger a buffer overflow, potentially gaining privileges or crashing the device. The source bundle does not show active exploitation. Exposure appears limited to Nexus 7 (2013) devices running Android builds before 2016-08-05 that include the affected Qualcomm radio Iris driver. The provided affected-products metadata is incomplete, so do not generalize beyond the named device and component. Treat as high priority only where legacy Nexus 7 (2013) devices remain in use. Business urgency is low for environments without those devices, but unsupported Android tablets should be removed from production due to patching limitations. Mitigation focus: Identify Nexus 7 (2013) devices in asset inventory.; Update affected devices to Android security level 2016-08-05 or later.; Retire devices that cannot receive the fixed firmware..
