CVE-2022-25663

Local denial of service via unchecked frame length

Published Oct 12, 2022 · Updated May 15, 2025

Out-of-bounds read in Qualcomm Snapdragon firmware allows local users to interrupt service during management-frame handling. Management-frame receive handling reads an incoming buffer without first validating its length, permitting an out-of-bounds access. Low-privileged local access is required; Qualcomm reports denial of service but does not specify whether the result is a crash or hang.
