1. Technical Breakdown: CVE-2025-21483 (Heap Buffer Overflow in RTP Module)
Details:
Located in the Real‑Time Transport Protocol (RTP) packet reassembly logic, this heap buffer overflow allows remote attackers to overwrite memory by sending malformed RTP packets. The issue affects components like Snapdragon 8 Gen1/Gen2, FastConnect 7800, and related modems and connectivity modules.X (formerly Twitter)+1Cyber Security News+2X (formerly Twitter)+2
- Impact: Kernel-level RCE, full chip compromise, unauthorized OS control.
- Attack Vector: Remote, no user interaction, network usage via multimedia or VoIP traffic.
- Risk Zones: Smartphones, automotive modems, network-connected IoT devices.
- CWE: CWE‑119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within Memory Buffer Bounds).Cyber Security News+1
2. Technical Breakdown: CVE-2025-27034 (Array Index Validation in Call Processor)
Details:
This flaw occurs in the Multi‑Mode Call Processor, where improper validation of an array index in a PLMN (Public Land Mobile Network) response can corrupt memory and enable arbitrary execution. Affects chipsets such as Snapdragon X55, various IoT modems, and automotive connectivity modules.Cyber Security News+1
- Attack Vector: Network-level exploitation via malformed PLMN selection response—no privilege needed.
- Consequence: Complete remote control of modem firmware, potential elevation to OS control.
