Heap overwrite via unchecked userspace length
Published Jun 5, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Heap buffer overflow in Samsung Exynos 980, 850, 1280, 1380, and 1330 allows local users to overwrite heap memory. The slsi_nan_publish_get_nl_params() function accepts hal_req->service_specific_info_len from userspace without validating it before a heap write. Exploitation requires high local privileges, and Samsung has not published the downstream effect of corrupting the heap allocation.
