This error is not fatal, however the device might crash/reboot with memory violation/out of bounds access.

MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.43%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.43%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In all Qualcomm products with Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, out of bounds access is possible in c_show(), due to compat_hwcap_str[] not being NULL-terminated. This error is not fatal, however the device might crash/reboot with memory violation/out of bounds access.
