CVE-2026-58757: Samsung MFC heap buffer overflow in enc_roi_buffer allocation

CVE-2026-58757 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

Samsung's MFC (Multi-Format Codec) driver, used for video encoding and decoding on mobile devices, contains a heap buffer overflow in the enc_roi_buffer allocation function. A local attacker can exploit this to achieve privilege escalation without requiring special permissions or user interaction, potentially gaining control of the device.

Technologies: Google Pixel Devices. Vendors: Google.

Technical details

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in mfc_alloc_enc_roi_buffer() in mfc_buf.c due to improper heap buffer size validation. This allows a local attacker to overflow the heap buffer and corrupt adjacent memory, leading to privilege escalation. No special privileges or user interaction are required for exploitation.
