CVE-2015-9221
In Android before 2018-04-05 or earlier security patch level on Qualcomm Snapdragon Mobile SD 400, SD 800, and SD 810, lack of validation of pointers passed by secure apps could lead to an untrusted pointer dereference.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
