VetorAV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18
Description The issue is related to an elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Qualcomm Wi-Fi driver, which is associated with insufficient access control. This vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to elevate their privileges and execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel using a local malicious application. The issue is rated as High because it first requires compromising a privileged process.
Recommendations For Android versions Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18, consider restricting access to the Qualcomm Wi-Fi driver until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the Qualcomm Wi-Fi driver in sensitive operations to minimize the risk of exploitation.
