A TA with CPVC MINK class privileges can access CPVC interface methods on affected Qualcomm SoCs.

Vulnerability

In Android before the 2018-04-05 security patch level on Qualcomm Snapdragon Automobile and Snapdragon Mobile SD 425, SD 430, SD 450, SD 625, SD 650/52, SD 820, and SD 820A, a trusted application (TA) that has been granted privileges to the CPVC MINK class can access methods exposed by the CPVC interface [1]. This is due to insufficient access control on the CPVC interface.

Exploitation

An attacker would need to have a TA that already holds privileges to the CPVC MINK class, potentially through prior compromise or legitimate grant. The TA can then call CPVC interface methods without further authentication [1].

Impact

Successful exploitation allows the TA to invoke CPVC interface methods, which may lead to information disclosure, privilege escalation, or other unauthorized actions depending on the methods exposed [1].

Mitigation

A fix was included in the Android security patch level of 2018-04-05 or later [1]. Users should update their devices to the latest security patch level. No workaround is provided in the reference.
