Memory corruption via OIS packet-parser race
Published Jun 3, 2025 · Updated Jun 3, 2025
Memory corruption in Qualcomm Snapdragon camera drivers allows local users with low privileges to corrupt memory through OIS packet processing. Qualcomm identifies a time-of-check/time-of-use race in the OIS packet parser but does not disclose the checked object or the stale operation performed on it. Exploitation requires local low-privileged access and no user interaction; Qualcomm has not published whether corruption yields code execution or only instability.
