Local fingerprint-service interruption via null pointer dereference
Published Jun 11, 2025 · Updated Jun 11, 2025
Null pointer dereference in the fingerprint sensor service on affected Motorola phones before the 2025-06-01 SPL allows local users to interrupt the service. Motorola has not disclosed which fingerprint-sensor operation supplies the null pointer; the service dereferences it and fails. Exploitation requires local low-privileged access and active user interaction; the reported consequence is limited to service interruption.
