CVE-2024-43062

Local memory corruption via unsynchronized DMA fence

Published Mar 3, 2025 · Updated Mar 3, 2025

Use-after-free in Qualcomm Snapdragon Camera Linux allows local users to trigger memory corruption through DMA-fence misuse. Camera Linux accesses a DMA fence without required locks and validity checks, allowing improper synchronization to reuse freed memory. Low-privileged local access is required, and Qualcomm has not published the precise post-corruption consequence.
