Device compromise via unchecked USB frame size
Published Jan 21, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Out-of-bounds access in Qualcomm Snapdragon USB drivers allows local users to compromise affected devices through crafted frame sizes. The driver accepts a user-supplied USB frame size without checking it against the destination buffer before accessing memory outside its bounds. Local low-privilege access to an affected MDM9607, MSM8909W, MSM8917, MSM8920, MSM8937, MSM8940, QCS605, or SDX24 device is required; exploitation can disclose or alter memory or crash the device.
