2) Out-of-bounds write
EUVDB-ID: #VU28162
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12654
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in the "mwifiex_ret_wmm_get_status()" function in "drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/wmm.c" file. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

3) Out-of-bounds Write
EUVDB-ID: #VU32922
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 6.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10713
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: Yes
Description
The vulnerability allows a local attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a "BootHole" issue. An attacker with physical access can install persistent and stealthy bootkits or malicious bootloaders, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
