CVE-2026-24083

Local memory corruption via invalid IOCTL arguments

Published Aug 4, 2026 · Updated Aug 4, 2026

Memory corruption in Snapdragon Auto QAM8295P, QCA6696, and SA8295P allows local users to corrupt memory through malformed IOCTL requests. The affected device driver processes invalid IOCTL arguments and dereferences an untrusted pointer, causing memory corruption. Low-privilege local access is required; Qualcomm has not disclosed the driver or whether exploitation yields code execution rather than a crash or data corruption.
