Known exploited

CISA added this to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog on 15 Sept 2022. US federal agencies had to remediate by 6 Oct 2022, a deadline that has passed.

Required action. Apply updates per vendor instructions.

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the acdb_ioctl function in audio_acdb.c in the acdb audio driver for the Linux kernel 2.6.x and 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allows attackers to gain privileges via an application that leverages /dev/msm_acdb access and provides a large size value in an ioctl argument.
