Summary
Google Android versions from 14 are affected by an out-of-bounds read in the returnOutputBufferLocked function of the camera stream splitter, caused by a missing bounds check (CWE-119). A local attacker with low privileges can read memory past the intended buffer and disclose information, and no user interaction is needed.

Description from the CNA
In returnOutputBufferLocked of DeprecatedCamera3StreamSplitter.cpp, there is a possible out-of-bounds read due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
