This vulnerability allows for arbitrary code execution in the context of many apps and services and results in elevation of privileges. There is a Proof-of-Concept exploit against the Google Nexus 5 device, that achieves code execution inside the highly privileged system_server process, and then either replaces an existing arbitrary application on the device with our own malware app or changes the device’s SELinux policy. For some other devices, it is also possible to gain kernel code execution by loading an arbitrary kernel modules. This vulnerability was responsibly disclosed to the Android Security Team which tagged it as CVE-2015-3825 internally as ANDROID-21437603/ANDROID-21583849 and patched Android 4.4 / 5.x / M and Google Play Services. CVE-2015-3825 is the wrong CVE number (duplicate), CVE-2015-3837 should be used instead. The OpenSSLX509Certificate class in org/conscrypt/OpenSSLX509Certificate.java in Android before 5.1.1 LMY48I improperly includes certain context data during serialization and deserialization, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via an application that sends a crafted Intent, aka internal bug 21437603.

The acdb audio driver provides an ioctl system call interface to user space clients for communication. When processing arguments passed to the ioctl handler, a user space supplied size is used to copy as many bytes from user space to a local stack buffer without proper bounds checking. An application with access to the /dev/msm_acdb device file (audio or system group) can use this flaw to, e.g., elevate privileges. QCIR-2013-00002-1

5

Missing access checks in put_user/get_user kernel API (CVE-2013-6282 QCIR-2013-00010-1): The get_user and put_user API functions of the Linux kernel fail to validate the target address when being used on ARM v6k/v7 platforms. This functionality was originally implemented and controlled by the domain switching feature (CONFIG_CPU_USE_DOMAINS), which has been deprecated due to architectural changes. As a result, any kernel code using these API functions may introduce a security issue where none existed before. This allows an application to read and write kernel memory to, e.g., escalated privileges.

8

Out of bounds array access in camera driver (CVE-2013-6123): The camera driver provides an ioctl system call interface to user space clients for communication. When processing this communication, the msm_ioctl_server, msm_server_send_ctrl, and msm_ctrl_cmd_done functions use a user-supplied value as an index to the server_queue array for read and write operations without any boundary checks. A local application with access to the camera device nodes can use this flaw to, e.g., elevate privileges.

9

Stack-based buffer overflow and memory disclosure in camera driver QCIR-2013-00008-1: A stack-based buffer overflow and a kernel memory disclosure vulnerability have been discovered in the system call handlers of the camera driver

10

Most modern smart phones are equipped with a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), which takes care of rendering graphics, taking the workload off the CPU . For efficiency reasons, GPUs get Direct Memory Access (DMA), so that they can access any part of both kernel and user space memory.

11

The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.

12

Motorola Razr I (x86) 4.1.2 root exploit, silly permissions bug. symlink /data/logs/core to uevent_helper

13

udev before 1.4.1 does not verify whether a NETLINK message originates from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by sending a NETLINK message from user space.

14

Stack-based buffer overflow in the encode_key function in /system/bin/keystore in the KeyStore service in Android 4.3 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code, and consequently obtain sensitive key information or bypass intended restrictions on cryptographic operations, via a long key name.

15

Improper bounds checking in the PowerVR driver as used in versions of Android prior to 2.3.6 when copying user data to kernel memory allows a malicious local application to write to the same area of memory referenced in CVE-2011-1350, potentially allowing for arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation.



16

The n_tty_write function in drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly manage tty driver access in the "LECHO & !OPOST" case, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or gain privileges by triggering a race condition involving read and write operations with long strings.  Taking a look at the git history of the Linux kernel it turns out that all kernels between c56a00a165712fd73081f40044b1e64407bb1875 (march 2012) and 64325a3be08d364a62ee8f84b2cf86934bc2544a (january 2013) are not affected by this vuln as tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag() was internally locked there. Fixed from 4291086b1f081b869c6d79e5b7441633dc3ace00 and present from d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc

17

A locally installed application can gain root privileges by passing the wrong number of arguments in the “argv” parameter to the method FrameworkListener::dispatchCommand(), causing a buffer overflow within libsysutils. A patch which can be applied to both Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3) source will be made available shortly, and will be included in the next Android source code release.


18

The specific flaw exists within the parsing of the DHCP options in a DHCP ACK packet. The vulnerability is triggered when the LENGTH of an option, when added to the current read position, exceeds the actual length of the DHCP options buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code on the device. This remote code execution vulnerability executes code as the dhcp user which limit's its severity

19

On ASUS Transformer Pime /data/sensors/AMI304_Config.ini is set world writable on boot and so a /data/local.prop symlink attack can be mounted

20

In Android <5.0, java.io.ObjectInputStream did not check whether the Object that is being deserialized is actually serializable. That issue was fixed in Android 5.0. This means that when ObjectInputStream is used on untrusted inputs, an attacker can cause an instance of any class with a non-private parameterless constructor to be created. All fields of that instance can be set to arbitrary values. The malicious object will then typically either be ignored or cast to a type to which it doesn't fit, implying that no methods will be called on it and no data from it will be used. However, when it is collected by the GC, the GC will call the object's finalize method. luni/src/main/java/java/io/ObjectInputStream.java in the java.io.ObjectInputStream implementation in Android before 5.0.0 does not verify that deserialization will result in an object that met the requirements for serialization, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted finalize method for a serialized object in an ArrayMap Parcel within an intent sent to system_service, as demonstrated by the finalize method of android.os.BinderProxy, aka Bug 15874291. A POC local root exploit is available

21

Insufficient paramter checking for asec container creation allows an asec container to be mounted over part of the filesystem using directory traversal if the app has the ASEC_* permissions such as ASEC_CREATE. There is an adb tethered root explot for motorola phones

22

Bug in LG backlight driver allows gaining root from local user

23

Wen Xu and wushi of KeenTeam discovered that users allowed to create ping sockets can use them to crash the system and, on 32-bit architectures, for privilege escalation. However, by default, no users on a Debian system have access to ping sockets.

24

A path traversal vulnerability was found in the WifiHs20UtilityService. This service is running on a Samsung S6 Edge device, and may be present on other Samsung device models. WifiHs20UtilityService reads any files placed in /sdcard/Download/cred.zip, and unzips this file into /data/bundle. Directory traversal in the path of the zipped contents allows an attacker to write a controlled file to an arbitrary path as the system user.

25

We need to know the right location to "attack", we hardcode it for models/firmwares we have encountered. When Stump hits a device it does not "know" it can bruteforce the location. This can take upwards of 2 hours, but once down (if the phone has an internet connect) it will report it to us, and future builds can include the location.

26

The (1) pipe_read and (2) pipe_write implementations in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 3.16 do not properly consider the side effects of failed __copy_to_user_inatomic and __copy_from_user_inatomic calls, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application, aka an 'I/O vector array overrun.' This is a known issue in the upstream Linux kernel that was fixed in April 2014 but wasn’t called out as a security fix and assigned CVE-2015-1805 until February 2, 2015. On February 19, 2016, C0RE Team notified Google that the issue could be exploited on Android and a patch was developed to be included in an upcoming regularly scheduled monthly update. On March 15, 2016 Google received a report from Zimperium that this vulnerability had been abused on a Nexus 5 device. Google has confirmed the existence of a publicly available rooting application that abuses this vulnerability on Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 to provide the device user with root privileges.

Drake said that the vulnerabilities can be exploited by sending a single multimedia text message to an unpatched Android smartphone. While the exploit is deadly, in some cases, where phones parse the attack code prior to the message being opened, the exploits are silent and the user would have little chance of defending their data. Stagefright is the media playback service for Android, introduced in Android 2.2 (Froyo). Stagefright in versions of Android prior to 5.1.1_r9 may contain multiple vulnerabilities, including several integer overflows, which may allow a remote attacker to execute code on the device.

28

Meet Stagefright 2.0, a set of two vulnerabilities that manifest when processing specially crafted MP3 audio or MP4 video files. The first vulnerability (in libutils) impacts almost every Android device since version 1.0 released in 2008. We found methods to trigger that vulnerability in devices running version 5.0 and up using the second vulnerability (in libstagefright). Google assigned CVE-2015-6602 to vulnerability in libutils.

29

Certifi-gate is a set of vulnerabilities in the authorization methods between mobile Remote Support Tool (mRST) apps and system-level plugs on a device. mRSTs allow remote personnel to offer customers personalized technical support for their devices by replicating a device’s screen and by simulating screen clicks at a remote console. If exploited, Certifi-gate allows malicious applications to gain unrestricted access to a device silently, elevating their privileges to allow access to the user data and perform a variety of actions usually only available to the device owner.

30

Android does not properly check cryptographic signatures for applications, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via an application package file (APK) that is modified in a way that does not violate the cryptographic signature. Android security bug 8219321.

31

APK signature verification does not check name lengths correctly, creating a difference between how the zip files are verified compared with how they are extracted which allows files in an existing APK to be replaced with new files. Exploited by RockMyMoto

32

File offsets in zips are supposed to be unsigned but were interpreted as signed allowing different content to be verified from the content executed.

33

A certain configuration of Android 2.3.7 on the Motorola Defy XT phone for Republic Wireless uses init to create a /dev/socket/init_runit socket that listens for shell commands, which allows local users to gain privileges by interacting with a LocalSocket object. Stack-based buffer overflow in the sub_E110 function in init in a certain configuration of Android 2.3.7 on the Motorola Defy XT phone for Republic Wireless allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by writing a long string to the /dev/socket/init_runit socket that is inconsistent with a certain length value that was previously written to this socket.

34

The software does not properly validate an application's certificate chain. An application can supply a specially crafted application identity certificate to impersonate a privileged application and gain access to vendor-specific device administration extensions. The vulnerability resides in the createChain() and findCert() functions of the Android JarUtils class. Google bug 13678484

35

The vold volume manager daemon on Android 3.0 and 2.x before 2.3.4 trusts messages that are received from a PF_NETLINK socket, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code and gain root privileges

36

Android before 2.3 does not properly restrict access to the system property space, which allows local applications to bypass the application sandbox and gain privileges

37

Race condition in Sprite Software's backup software, installed by OEM on LG Android devices.

38

Integer overflow in the fb_mmap function in drivers/video/fbmem.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.9 QCIR-2013-00004-1

39

The camera driver provides several interfaces to user space clients. The user space clients communicate to the kernel via syscalls such as ioctl or mmap. The camera driver provides an uncontrolled mmap interface that allows an application with access to the device file to map physical memory exceeding the camera driver's memory into user space. A locally installed, unprivileged application can use this flaw to escalate privileges.

40

Multiple memory corruption issues and race condition in Goodix gt915 touchscreen driver procfs handler (CVE-2013-4740 CVE-2013-6122) QCIR-2013-00009-1: Multiple issues have been identified in the Goodix gt915 touchscreen driver for Android. The issues were found in the write handler of the procfs entry created by the driver, which by default is readable and writeable to users without any specific privileges.



41

Integer overflow and signedness issue in camera JPEG engines (CVE-2013-4736) QCIR-2013-00005-1: The JPEG engines that are part of the camera driver provide an ioctl system call interface to user space clients for communication. When processing hardware commands ioctl calls, the drivers are incorrectly handling the number of commands included in the user space payload. This can lead to an integer overflow which subsequently results in the driver attempting to process hardware commands from out-of-bounds memory which can cause the kernel to crash. The same code also suffered from incorrectly treating the number of hardware commands as signed. Gemini JPEG encoder, Mercury JPEG decoder, and Jpeg1.0 common encoder/decoder contain an unspecified integer overflow condition during the handling of hardware command IOCTL calls that may allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service or potentially execute of arbitrary code.

42

QCIR-2012-00001-1: Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in the handling of the diagchar_ioctl() and kgsl_ioctl() system call parameters for the diagnostics (DIAG) and KGSL graphics kernel drivers for Android.

43

Insecure owner/permission changes in init shell scripts (CVE-2013-6124): During the device start-up phase, several init shell scripts are executed with root privileges to configure various aspects of the system. During this process, standard toolchain commands such as chown or chmod are used to, e.g., change the owner of the sensor settings file to the system user. As these commands follow symbolic links (symlinks), an attacker with write access to these resources is able to conduct symlink attacks and thus change for example the owner of an arbitrary file to system. This flaw can be used to, e.g., elevate privileges.

44

HTC recovery log on some devices is world writable and so can be deleted and symlinked to /data/local.prop to allow root on reboot, this is a appears to be a unstable exploit and requires the user to reboot into recovery mode
