Integer signedness error in the MSM QDSP6 audio driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allows attackers to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted application that makes an ioctl call.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2016-2066 is a kernel memory corruption issue in the MSM QDSP6 audio driver used in Qualcomm/QuIC Android kernel contributions for MSM devices. A malicious local application could potentially gain elevated privileges or crash the device. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, exact affected models, or current patch availability. Exposure is most likely on legacy Android MSM devices using Qualcomm/QuIC Linux 3.x kernel audio driver code. The bundle does not identify exact OEM devices, firmware builds, or package names, so asset matching requires vendor firmware and kernel provenance checks. Treat as high priority for organizations still operating legacy Qualcomm-based Android devices. The business risk is device compromise or disruption, but urgency depends on confirmed exposure because the bundle lacks affected model details and evidence of active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Check OEM and Android security guidance for affected device builds.; Prioritize replacement or isolation of unsupported legacy Android MSM devices.; Apply vendor firmware updates that include the relevant Qualcomm/QuIC kernel fix..
