Proximal attacker information disclosure via unchecked wifi read
Published Aug 17, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Information disclosure in the Android wifi driver in Android SoC allows remote attackers to read memory via a proximal wireless connection. The driver performs an out-of-bounds read because a bounds check is missing when processing untrusted wifi data. Exploitation requires no additional execution privileges or user interaction, and the documented consequence is disclosure of information rather than data modification or service interruption.
