Overview

CVE-2023-52349 is a vulnerability discovered in the RIL (Radio Interface Layer) service affecting Android devices. The vulnerability was disclosed on April 7, 2024, and is characterized as an out-of-bounds write vulnerability due to a missing bounds check. This vulnerability affects multiple UNISOC chipsets including SC7731E, SC9832E, SC9863A, T310, T606, T612, T616, T610, T618, T760, T770, T820, and S8000, running on Android versions 12, 13, and 14 (Unisoc Advisory).
