CVE-2023-30929

Local privilege escalation via missing permission check

Published Jul 12, 2023 · Updated Dec 4, 2024

Missing authorization in Unisoc Android telephony service on affected chipsets running Android 10 through 13 allows local users to gain privileges. The service omits a permission check, but Unisoc has not disclosed the affected operation, request, or privilege boundary. Exploitation requires local code execution on a device using a listed Unisoc chipset; no user interaction is required, and the resulting privilege level is not publicly specified.
