In all Qualcomm products with Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, during the wlan calibration data store and retrieve operation, there are some potential race conditions which lead to a memory leak and a buffer overflow during the context switch.
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.
