Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-617.
Summary
In Modem, there is a possible system crash due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote denial of service, if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: MOLY00755024; Issue ID: MSV-7865.
