CVE-2017-8281
In all Qualcomm products with Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, a race condition can allow access to already freed memory while querying event status via DCI.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.36%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
