CVE-2014-3186
Status: ModifiedMedium (6.9)—
Buffer overflow in the picolcd_raw_event function in devices/hid/hid-picolcd_core.c in the PicoLCD HID device driver in the Linux kernel through 3.16.3, as used in Android on Nexus 7 devices, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted device that sends a large report.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 6.9
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.70%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 52
- Score date: 10/13/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
