CVE-2026-25288: CWE-126 Buffer Over-read in Qualcomm, Inc. Snapdragon
Transient DOS when processing a short target wake time channel usage response frame with insufficient packet size.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a buffer over-read condition in Qualcomm Snapdragon devices when handling a target wake time channel usage response frame that is shorter than expected, leading to insufficient packet size. This can cause a transient denial of service (DoS) condition. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.4, indicating high severity, with attack vector being adjacent network, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and scope changed. The vulnerability affects a range of Qualcomm Snapdragon hardware versions explicitly enumerated. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation results in a transient denial of service (DoS) on affected Qualcomm Snapdragon devices. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity reported. The DoS could disrupt device functionality temporarily during processing of malformed frames.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or mitigation instructions are currently available from Qualcomm. Users and administrators should monitor for vendor updates and apply patches once released.
