DescriptionCVE.org

Memory Corruption when executing system service routines due to improper handling of user input buffers.

AnalysisAI

Memory corruption in Qualcomm Snapdragon system service routines allows a locally installed, low-privileged application to trigger a use-after-free by supplying a malformed input buffer, potentially achieving code execution at the privilege level of the affected service and thereby compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The flaw is scored CVSS 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), so exploitation is access-gated: the attacker must already be executing code on the device with low privileges and must be able to reach and invoke the vulnerable routine - there is no remote or network vector, and no user interaction is required once that code runs. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to already be executing code locally on the Snapdragon-based device with low privileges (PR:L) - typically an installed, unprivileged application - and to be able to reach and invoke the vulnerable system service routine with an attacker-controlled input buffer. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuine but access-gated priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Patch status is not confirmed by the supplied data: no fix version, commit, or explicit vendor patch statement is included, so the Qualcomm October 2026 product security bulletin (https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/october-2026-bulletin.html) must be consulted for the applicable chipset, the fixed firmware/BSP revision, and the list of affected builds. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all devices using Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets identified in Qualcomm's October 2026 security bulletin and determine which are running vulnerable firmware builds; restrict installation of untrusted applications via mobile device management (MDM) policies and enable application allowlisting. …
