Local memory corruption via unchecked GPU register range
Published May 6, 2024 · Updated Dec 16, 2025
Improper access control in Qualcomm Graphics Linux allows local users to corrupt memory through crafted LPAC submissions. LPAC register-range validation permits submissions to access GPU registers beyond the final protected range, causing memory corruption. Local access to the submission interface is required; the public record describes no remote path or narrower post-corruption outcome.
