- Summary
- A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the modem's OTA update system due to inadequate validation of SIB1 scheduling information, potentially allowing remote code execution or denial of service without any privileges.
- Exploitability
- Exploitation is likely straightforward with no prerequisites needed, as the vulnerability occurs during OTA updates and requires only network access to trigger the malformed SIB1 message.
- Blast radius
- The impact could be widespread across all affected modems that process OTA updates, potentially affecting thousands of devices in the field that rely on cellular connectivity.
- Detection
- No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.
