CVE-2025-47405: CWE-822 Untrusted Pointer Dereference in Qualcomm, Inc. Snapdragon
CVE-2025-47405 is a high-severity vulnerability in Qualcomm Snapdragon components that causes memory corruption when processing camera sensor input/output control codes with invalid output buffers. This issue involves untrusted pointer dereference (CWE-822) and affects multiple Snapdragon platforms and related hardware. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.8, indicating significant impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided yet, and there are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2025-47405) involves memory corruption triggered by untrusted pointer dereference when Qualcomm Snapdragon devices process camera sensor IOCTL commands with invalid output buffers. Affected products include various Snapdragon platforms such as FastConnect 6900/7800, IQX5121/7181, multiple WCD and WSA components, and XR2 platforms. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) indicates local attack vector with low complexity, requiring low privileges and no user interaction, and results in high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability is published but no official fix or patch is currently documented.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to memory corruption, potentially allowing an attacker with local access and low privileges to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected device. The high CVSS score reflects the severity of impact on core security properties. However, there are no known exploits in the wild currently.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official patch or remediation level has been provided by Qualcomm, users and administrators should monitor Qualcomm's advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, restricting local access and limiting privileges may reduce exposure.
