CVE-2026-25292: CWE-1286: Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input in Qualcomm, Inc. Snapdragon
CVE-2026-25292 is a high severity vulnerability in Qualcomm Snapdragon products involving memory corruption triggered by improper validation of syntactic correctness of untrusted input in the fastboot command handler for audio framework configuration. It affects a broad range of Snapdragon chipsets and related components. The vulnerability could lead to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-25292) involves improper validation of syntactic correctness of input in the fastboot command handler related to audio framework configuration on Qualcomm Snapdragon devices. Specifically, processing untrusted user input can cause memory corruption. The CVSS 3.1 score is 7.6 (high), with attack vector being physical (AV:P), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and scope changed (S:C), resulting in high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H). The affected products include a wide range of Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets and wireless connectivity modules. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently provided.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker with physical access to cause memory corruption, potentially leading to full compromise of the affected device's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability affects critical components in the audio framework configuration, which could be leveraged to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service.
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. Until a patch is released, limit physical access to affected devices and monitor vendor communications for updates.
