Does this matter?

Known to be exploited in the wild (CISA KEV, CISA remediation deadline 6 October 2022). Treat as an emergency change: patch or isolate now, then hunt for prior compromise.

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the acdb_ioctl function in audio_acdb.c in the acdb audio driver for the Linux kernel 2.6.x and 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allows attackers to gain privileges via an application that leverages /dev/msm_acdb access and provides a large size value in an ioctl argument.
