Exploited CVEs / Qualcomm / CVE-2023-33106
CVE-2023-33106
Qualcomm Multiple Chipsets Use of Out-of-Range Pointer Offset Vulnerability. Exploitation in the wild is confirmed by CISA, not predicted. Federal agencies were required to remediate by 2023-12-26 (that deadline has passed); treat that date as the outer bound for your own environment. Check the vendor security advisory for the fix.
Risk summary
Actively exploited Qualcomm Multiple Chipsets vulnerability, High severity, CVSS 7.8. Added to the CISA KEV catalog 2023-12-05.
Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2023-33106
The second of the Qualcomm graphics driver trio exploited in late 2023: an out-of-range pointer offset triggered by submitting a large list of sync points in an AUX command to IOCTL_KGSL_GPU_AUX_COMMAND. GPU driver IOCTLs are a favorite privilege escalation surface in Android exploit chains because every app can reach them. It was KEV-listed in December 2023 with High Severity (CVSS 7.8).
Do this: Verify Android fleet devices carry the security patch level that includes Qualcomm's fix, and retire handsets that no longer receive vendor updates.
