Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
An issue exists in the Linux kernel related to Qualcomm QMI encoding and decoding. The QMI TLV value for strings within various QMI element info structures allocates space for null-terminated strings using MAX LEN + 1. If a string reaches the maximum length of MAX LEN + 1, appending a null character during decoding can lead to an out-of-bounds access. The vulnerable code involves decoding strings within QMI TLV structures.
