On Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices, an integer overflow condition exists within libomacp.so when parsing OMACP messages (within WAP Push SMS messages) leading to a heap corruption that can result in Denial of Service and potentially remote code execution, a subset of SVE-2016-6542.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE concerns older Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices. A flaw in Samsung's OMACP message parser could corrupt memory when handling WAP Push SMS messages, causing denial of service and potentially remote code execution. The sources do not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed exploitation. Exposure is most likely limited to Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices running vulnerable firmware. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete, so organizations should verify exact models, Android builds, and Samsung patch levels rather than relying on generic CPE data. High if legacy Galaxy S4 through S7 devices remain in business use, because the source states potential remote code execution from message parsing. If those devices are retired or fully updated, priority becomes inventory confirmation and residual-risk cleanup. Mitigation focus: Identify any Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices still in use.; Check Samsung's August 2016 SMR and related SVE-2016-6542 guidance.; Apply vendor-approved firmware updates where available..
