Local privilege escalation via command injection
Published Oct 9, 2024 · Updated Oct 9, 2024
Command injection in UNISOC linkturbonative on affected Android 13 and Android 14 chipsets allows local users to gain System privileges. The service passes improperly validated input to a command-execution path, but UNISOC has not disclosed the affected function or input field. Exploitation requires high local privileges and user interaction, and successful injection executes with System privileges.
