## Technical details

A NULL pointer dereference (CWE-476) exists in Qualcomm firmware/software during memory copy operations. The vulnerability is triggered when the system attempts to perform an invalid write operation using a null pointer, leading to memory corruption. An attacker with local access and low privileges can exploit this to achieve high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The issue was disclosed in the June 2026 Qualcomm Security Bulletin. Mitigation typically requires applying firmware updates provided by the device manufacturer.
