In Android before 2018-04-05 or earlier security patch level on Qualcomm Snapdragon Mobile MDM9607, MDM9615, MDM9635M, MDM9640, SD 210/SD 212/SD 205, SD 400, SD 600, SD 615/16/SD 415, SD 617, SD 650/52, SD 800, SD 810, and SD 820, an arbitrary length value from an incoming message to QMI Proxy can lead to an out-of-bounds write in the stack variable message.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE affects some Android devices using specified Qualcomm Snapdragon Mobile chipsets when they are below the 2018-04-05 Android security patch level. A malformed incoming message to QMI Proxy can write beyond a stack buffer, creating memory-corruption risk. The sources do not provide a CVSS score or confirmed exploitation evidence. Exposure is most likely on older Android handsets, embedded Android devices, or mobile broadband devices using the listed Qualcomm platforms and running a pre-2018-04-05 Android security patch level. Prioritize discovery and patch confirmation for legacy Android assets. Treat this as a potentially serious memory-corruption issue, but not a confirmed emergency based on the provided sources. Mitigation focus: Update affected devices to the 2018-04-05 Android security patch level or later.; Check OEM and Qualcomm guidance for device-specific firmware availability.; Retire or replace devices that cannot receive patched firmware..
