CVE-2024-53017

Memory corruption via out-of-range camera-driver pointer

Published Jun 3, 2025 · Updated Jun 3, 2025

Memory corruption in Qualcomm Snapdragon camera drivers allows local users with low privileges to alter memory through a test-pattern IOCTL. The camera driver processes a test pattern generator IOCTL using an out-of-range pointer offset, causing memory corruption. Local low-privileged access is required, and Qualcomm has not disclosed the concrete post-corruption behavior.
