Insecure Cryptographic Algorithm in Qualcomm GPS Client for Android

CVE-2014-9969

What is CVE-2014-9969?

The vulnerability arises from the Qualcomm GPS client embedded in Android devices, where it employs an insecure cryptographic algorithm which can compromise GPS data integrity. This flaw affects all Qualcomm products running Android versions from CAF that utilize the Linux kernel, exposing users to potential security threats. By leveraging this vulnerability, an attacker could manipulate GPS signals, leading to unauthorized tracking or denial of service. This highlights the critical need for manufacturers to prioritize secure coding practices and implement stronger cryptographic measures in their products.
