VAR-201611-0153
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-13 23:17An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Qualcomm bus driver in Android before 2016-11-05 could enable a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel. This issue is rated as High because it first requires compromising a privileged process. Android ID: A-30311977. References: Qualcomm QC-CR#1050455. GoogleNexus5X and so on are all smart devices from Google. Qualcommbus is one of the Qualcomm bus components. Google Android is prone to a privilege-escalation vulnerability

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
