Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in Samsung Mobile and Wearable Processors

CVE-2026-33960

What is CVE-2026-33960?

A flaw has been identified within Samsung’s Exynos 1330, 1380, 1480, 1580, 1680, W920, W930, and W1000 processors. This vulnerability arises from a malformed ioctl command sent to the Wi-Fi interface device, which can lead to incorrect buffer size allocation. Consequently, this can create an out-of-bounds write situation, potentially resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. Users of affected devices should take precautionary measures to secure their systems.
