CVE-2016-3765
decoder/impeg2d_bitstream.c in mediaserver in Android 6.x before 2016-07-01 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted application, aka internal bug 28168413.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.39%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
