Remote service interruption via modem assertion
Published Dec 13, 2022 · Updated Apr 22, 2025
Reachable assertion in Qualcomm Snapdragon modem firmware allows remote attackers to interrupt service through the common config procedure. While processing that procedure, modem code permits network input to reach an assertion; Qualcomm has not disclosed the exact function or failed check. No privileges or user interaction are required, and the documented consequence is limited to interruption of modem service.
