Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.37%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

In all android releases (Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android) from CAF using the linux kernel, asynchronous callbacks received a pointer to a callers local variable. Should the caller return early (e.g., timeout), the callback will dereference an invalid pointer.
