Memory disclosure via textbox parser boundary failure
Published Aug 7, 2024 · Updated Aug 7, 2024
Out-of-bounds read in Samsung Notes before 4.4.21.62 allows local users to read unauthorized memory while parsing a textbox object. The textbox-object parser reads beyond its intended buffer because it does not enforce a proper boundary check. Local access to the affected app is required, and the documented impact is limited to memory disclosure.
