Summary

The vulnerability allows for a potential buffer overflow in RSA encryption operations on multiple Qualcomm Snapdragon platforms. The issue arises when the function ce_util_to_unsigned_bin improperly handles address size instead of character buffer size, potentially leading to memory corruption. This undesired behavior could be exploited to perform malicious actions on affected devices.
