CVE-2014-4322
drivers/misc/qseecom.c in the QSEECOM driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, does not validate certain offset, length, and base values within an ioctl call, which allows attackers to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted application.
CVSS
- Base score
- 7.2
- Version
- 2.0
- Vector
- AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- 2.04 %
- Percentile among all scored CVEs
- 81
- Score date
- 10/20/2026
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).
Public exploits
Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
