Technical details
A vulnerability exists in the Layer 2 (L2) processing component of several Samsung Exynos mobile and wearable processors, as well as standalone modems. The issue stems from the incorrect handling of LTE MAC packets that contain an excessive number of MAC Control Elements (CEs), leading to uncontrolled resource consumption or a logic error that triggers a baseband crash. This is a network-based attack that requires no user interaction or prior authentication. Successful exploitation results in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition for the cellular modem, and according to CISA-ADP scoring, may also have implications for data confidentiality.
