Google Android Operating System < 5.1.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 8666

Synopsis

The remote device is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The Google Android operating system prior to 5.1.0 is affected by the following vulnerabilities

- An overflow condition in the 'print_option()' function of the DHCP client daemon 'dhcp.c' is triggered when handling DHCP options. With a specially crafted ACK packet response, a context-dependent attacker can execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-7913)
- There is an integer overflow conditions in the 'GraphicBuffer::unflatten()' function in 'platform/frameworks/native/libs/ui/GraphicBuffer.cpp' related to a large number of file descriptors or integer values. This may allow a malicious application to corrupt memory, causing a crash or potentially executing code with escalated privileges. (CVE-2015-1474)
- There is an integer overflow condition in the 'BnAudioPolicyService::onTransact()' function in 'IAudioPolicyService.cpp'. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling a bound array size. This may allow a local attacker to cause a buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service or potentially execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-1530)

Solution

Upgrade to Google Android operating system version 5.1.0 or later.
