CVE-2024-34627

Local memory disclosure via unchecked parsing

Published Aug 7, 2024 · Updated Aug 7, 2024

An out-of-bounds read in Samsung Notes before 4.4.21.62 allows local users to read process memory through its parsing implementation. Samsung identifies only the parsing implementation and states that proper input validation was missing; no finer code locus is public. Low privileges and local access are required, and the published impact is limited to disclosure of Samsung Notes process memory.
