CVE-2024-34673

Local denial of service via IpcProtocol validation

Published Nov 6, 2024 · Updated Nov 6, 2024

Improper input validation in Samsung Mobile Devices' modem IpcProtocol before SMR Nov-2024 Release 1 allows local attackers to cause denial of service. Samsung identifies an unnecessary IpcProtocol implementation as the cause but has not disclosed the accepted input, failed validation, or failure mode. Exploitation requires local high-privilege access and high attack complexity; the published vector limits impact to service availability.
