Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2021-25372

Alongside the ELF-loading flaw, Samsung's DSP driver also suffered an improper boundary check enabling out-of-bounds memory access, Medium Severity at CVSS 6.7 (KEV, 2023-06-29). The two DSP bugs together gave attackers both a memory corruption primitive and a code-loading path in the same component. Confirmed exploitation makes the six same-day Samsung KEV entries a package deal for defenders.
