Local service interrupt via unchecked buffer write
Published Sep 4, 2023 · Updated Sep 30, 2024
Out-of-bounds write in the urild service on affected UNISOC Android chipsets allows local users to interrupt the service. The service omits a bounds check before writing data, permitting a write outside the intended buffer; UNISOC has not disclosed the triggering input or code path. Exploitation requires local access with System execution privileges, and whether the interruption is a hang, crash, or reboot is undisclosed.
