Descriptions

Binder in the kernel in Android before 2016-10-05 on Nexus devices allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application, aka internal bug 30768347.

El enlazador en el kernel en Android en versiones anteriores a 2016-10-05 en dispositivos Nexus permite a atacantes obtener información sensible a través de una aplicación manipulada, vulnerabilidad también conocida como error interno 30768347.

The interaction between the kernel /dev/binder and the usermode Parcel.cpp mean that when a binder object is passed as BINDER_TYPE_BINDER or BINDER_TYPE_WEAK_BINDER, a pointer to that object (in the server process) is leaked to the client process as the cookie value. This leads to a leak of a heap address in many of the privileged binder services, including system_server.
