Technical details

A vulnerability classified as improper input validation (CWE-20) exists in the Unisoc Modem IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) component. The flaw allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to send specially crafted network traffic that triggers a system crash. This results in a denial of service (DoS) affecting the device's cellular and multimedia communication capabilities. The vulnerability affects multiple chipsets running Android versions 13 through 16. No additional execution privileges or user interaction are required for exploitation.
