High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions Kernel-3.10

Description The issue is related to insufficient access control in the Qualcomm pin controller driver of the Android operating system. It allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel by exploiting a local malicious application. This problem is considered high severity because it first requires compromising a privileged process.

Recommendations For Android version Kernel-3.10, consider restricting access to the Qualcomm pin controller driver until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, ensure that all privileged processes are thoroughly monitored and secured to prevent initial compromise.
