Qualcomm Multiple Chipsets
Multiple Qualcomm chipsets contain a use-after-free vulnerability when process shell memory is freed using IOCTL munmap call and process initialization is in progress.
Exploitation status
- CISA has confirmed this is being exploited in the wild. That is an observation of real attacks, not a prediction.
- US federal civilian agencies are required to remediate it by 2023-12-26. That deadline does not bind private companies, but it is a reasonable benchmark for how urgently CISA views it.
Required action
Apply remediations or mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if remediation or mitigations are unavailable.
