Severity by source
AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:L
IOCTL abuse requires local low-privileged app access (AV:L/PR:L), reaching the flaw is state-dependent (AC:H) with user interaction (UI:R); kernel OOB write crosses the trust boundary (S:C) with high integrity impact.

Memory corruption while processing IOCTL command called from user space to the kernel with invalid parameters.
AnalysisAI
Qualcomm Snapdragon kernel driver IOCTL handling contains a memory corruption (out-of-bounds write) that a local attacker with low-privilege code execution can trigger by supplying invalid parameters, leading to potential integrity impact and denial of service. This is a moderate-severity local issue (CVSS 6.6) rather than a drop-everything priority. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an attacker to already have local, low-privileged code execution on a Snapdragon-based device (e.g., an installed/running application able to open the affected driver and issue IOCTL calls to the kernel). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a moderate-severity local issue (CVSS 6.6) rather than a drop-everything 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 | Apply the vendor patch as described in the Qualcomm October 2026 security bulletin (https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/october-2026-bulletin.html); the bulletin provides the fixed firmware or driver versions for affected Snapdragon chipsets. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
