Memory Corruption when output buffer size is smaller than input buffer size during data copying operation.
AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in Qualcomm Snapdragon corrupts memory during a data copy operation when the output buffer is sized smaller than the input buffer, enabling a high-privileged local attacker to achieve full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on affected devices. Rooted in CWE-121, this vulnerability can allow control-flow hijacking via stack memory overwrite on Snapdragon-based platforms. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, but the high-impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) warrants prompt patching in environments where privileged access is shared or contested.
Technical ContextAI
The affected product is Qualcomm Snapdragon (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:qualcomm,_inc.:snapdragon:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), which is a family of system-on-chip platforms used widely in mobile and embedded devices. The root cause is CWE-121 (Stack-Based Buffer Overflow): during a data copying operation, the software fails to validate that the destination (output) buffer is large enough to hold the source (input) data. When an attacker controls or influences the input buffer size relative to the stack-allocated output buffer, the excess data overwrites adjacent stack memory. This can corrupt return addresses, saved frame pointers, or function pointers, enabling control-flow redirection. Stack-based buffer overflows are a well-understood but high-severity vulnerability class, particularly on platforms where stack canaries, ASLR, or CFI mitigations may be inconsistently applied across firmware components.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to apply the firmware or driver update detailed in the Qualcomm June 2026 Security Bulletin at https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/june-2026-bulletin.html. An exact patched firmware or component version number is not independently confirmable from available data - consult the bulletin directly for versioned fix details, as Qualcomm typically distributes patches to OEM partners who then release device-specific updates. As a compensating control where patching is delayed, restrict high-privileged local access on Snapdragon-based devices to only trusted, audited accounts, since exploitation requires PR:H (high privileges) per the CVSS vector; reducing the number of privileged users directly reduces the exploitable attack surface. No documented workarounds beyond access restriction are available in the referenced data. Note that access restriction does not eliminate the vulnerability and should not substitute for patching.
