Attackers can send a message beginning with 'pppd pty' followed by shell metacharacters and arbitrary commands, which are passed unfiltered to system(3) and executed by /system/bin/sh -c as root, resulting in full privilege escalation.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `A95X NEXBOX-A95X-201606011847`\n- `A95X NEXBOX-A95X-AP6330`\n- `android_sdk all versions`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"midnight","depthScore":55,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":42.9,"likelihood":0.2,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
