CVE-2018-9376

This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed.

MEDIUM 6.7EPSS 0.08%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.08%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In rpc_msg_handler and related handlers of drivers/misc/mediatek/eccci/port_rpc.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
