Description

In an audio driver function in all Qualcomm products with Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, or QRD Android, some parameters are from userspace, and if they are set to a large value, integer overflow is possible followed by buffer overflow. In another function, a missing check for a lower bound may result in an out of bounds memory access.
