Summary
Samsung Semiconductor Exynos 1280, Exynos 1330, Exynos 1380, Exynos 1480, Exynos 2400 and other products are affected before July 2026. Improper validation of an array index (CWE-129) lets unauthenticated downlink RRC Setup messages crash the baseband. An unauthenticated attacker can trigger the crash.
