Information disclosure via unchecked buffer length
Published Sep 9, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
An out-of-bounds read in Samsung Mobile Devices running Android 10 through 12 allows local users to read unauthorized information. The libapexjni.media.samsung.so library reads beyond the intended buffer because it does not adequately validate the supplied length. Local access to an affected device is required, and the disclosed consequence is information exposure without reported modification or service interruption.
