Status: ModifiedHigh (8.8)—
Severity8.8High · CVSS 3.1
Exploitation probability1.13 %higher than 66% of CVEs
Active exploitationNonot in the CISA catalog
Public exploitNot knownno public code found

In impd_parse_loud_eq_instructions of impd_drc_dynamic_payload.c there is a possible out-of-bound write due to missing bounds check. This could lead to remote code execution with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android-9. Android ID: A-116020594.
