The root cause is insufficient validation of packet sizes when they reach near-maximum values, allowing an attacker to trigger out-of-bounds memory access. The attack vector is network-based and does not require authentication or user interaction. Successful exploitation can lead to denial of service or arbitrary code execution depending on memory layout and attacker capabilities. A patch is expected to be available from Qualcomm through their security bulletins. ## Affected products - Qualcomm ## Timeline - 2026-08-04: disclosed - 2026-08-04: advisory: Qualcomm security bulletin published ## References - [https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/august-2026-bulletin.html](https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/august-2026-bulletin.html) ## Related threats - [Qualcomm device driver memory corruption in IOCTL handling](https://junglewise.ai/threats/cve-2026-24083-qualcomm-device-driver-memory-corruption-in-ioctl-handling) - [Qualcomm fingerprint TA memory corruption in request parameter handling](https://junglewise.ai/threats/cve-2026-24080-qualcomm-fingerprint-ta-memory-corruption-in-request-parameter) - [Qualcomm Snapdragon Cryptographic Issue in AES-GCM key wrapping](https://junglewise.ai/threats/cve-2026-21383-qualcomm-snapdragon-cryptographic-issue-in-aes-gcm-key-wrapping) - [Qualcomm Snapdragon memory corruption in input validation](https://junglewise.ai/threats/cve-2026-21370-qualcomm-snapdragon-memory-corruption-in-input-validation) - [Qualcomm Snapdragon memory corruption in JPEG command parsing](https://junglewise.ai/threats/cve-2026-21368-qualcomm-snapdragon-memory-corruption-in-jpeg-command-parsing)
