In all Qualcomm products with Android release from CAF using the Linux kernel, while processing fastboot boot command when verified boot feature is disabled, with length greater than boot image buffer, a buffer overflow can occur.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
