CVE-2017-9722
In Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android, with all Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, when updating custom EDID (hdmi_tx_sysfs_wta_edid), if edid_size, which is controlled by userspace, is too large, a buffer overflow occurs.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.15%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
