CVE-2021-0342

CVSS v3.1

6.7

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android kernel
Description The issue is related to a component of the Android operating system, specifically a problem with memory usage after it has been freed. This could potentially allow an attacker to escalate their privileges. The exploitation of this issue may lead to local escalation of privilege, requiring System execution privileges. User interaction is not necessary for the exploitation to occur.
Recommendations For Android kernel, consider applying a patch to fix the memory corruption issue in the tun get user function of tun.c as a permanent solution. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the tun.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
