VAR-201701-0295
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-20 19:49An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Qualcomm camera driver 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. Product: Android. Versions: Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18. Android ID: A-30740545. References: QC-CR#1065916. Qualcomm A security vulnerability exists in the camera driver. Google Nexus is prone to a privilege-escalation vulnerability
