Technical details

A NULL pointer dereference (CWE-476) exists in Samsung Open Source Walrus at commit f339b8e. The vulnerability is triggered when the software attempts to read or write to a memory address that is expected to be valid but is actually NULL, leading to a crash. An attacker can exploit this via local access by providing malicious input that requires user interaction (UI:R). This results in a high impact on availability but does not affect confidentiality or integrity. A fix was introduced in pull request #409 to improve error throwing and resource limit handling.
