Local information disclosure via missing bounds check
Published Apr 5, 2024 · Updated Mar 25, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in the Android kernel allows local users to disclose information through the tmu_get_tr_thresholds function. The tmu_get_tr_thresholds function omits a bounds check and can read beyond the intended buffer when processing thresholds. No additional execution privileges or user interaction are required, but exploitation is local and the disclosed data is not publicly specified.
