Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds write
EUVDB-ID: #VU45872
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-0256
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
In LoadPartitionTable of gpt.cc, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege when inserting a malicious USB device, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android-8.1 Android-9 Android-10 Android-8.0Android ID: A-152874864
