Local service interrupt via leaked attach names
Published Jul 29, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026
Resource leak in the fastrpc audio daemon attach path in Linux allows local users to interrupt service by exhausting kernel memory via init IOCTL calls. fastrpc_init_create_static_process copies the Audio PD daemon-supplied name into an allocated kernel buffer but does not free that buffer after a successful attach. Access to the local fastrpc device and a supported Audio PD configuration is required; repeated attaches can exhaust memory and interrupt the system.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
