Memory corruption when processing escape handling flow with insufficient user buffer sizes.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-25280) involves an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) in Qualcomm Snapdragon devices. The issue arises from memory corruption triggered during escape handling flows when user buffers are insufficiently sized. The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 reflects high impact with local attack vector, low complexity, requiring low privileges, no user interaction, and resulting in high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. Affected products include specific Snapdragon models such as IQX5121, IQX7181, QCA0000, QCM5430, QCM6490, WCD9370, WCD9375, WCD9380, WCD9385, WSA8840, and WSA8845. No vendor advisory or patch information is provided.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could lead to memory corruption resulting in potential compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected Snapdragon devices. The CVSS vector indicates local attacker with low complexity and low privileges can cause significant impact without user interaction.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or mitigation details are provided in the available data.
