CVE-2024-21473

Root code execution via unvalidated log redirection

Published Apr 1, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Memory corruption in Qualcomm Wi-Fi SON firmware allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through the network-facing LDB service. The service accepts an arbitrary log-file location and name without properly validating the supplied redirection data before further processing, corrupting memory. Network-adjacent access is sufficient, authentication and user interaction are not required, and successful exploitation runs code as root.
