Samsung Galaxy S6

On Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices, an integer overflow condition exists within libomacp.so when parsing OMACP messages (within WAP Push SMS messages) leading to a heap corruption that can result in Denial of Service and potentially remote code execution, a subset of SVE-2016-6542.

An issue was discovered on Samsung mobile devices with software through 2015-11-12, affecting the Galaxy S6/S6 Edge, Galaxy S6 Edge+, and Galaxy Note5 with the Shannon333 chipset. There is a stack-based buffer overflow in the baseband process that is exploitable for remote code execution via a fake base station. The Samsung ID is SVE-2015-5123 (December 2015).

Samsung SecEmailSync on SM-G920F build G920FXXU2COH2 (Galaxy S6) devices has SQL injection, aka SVE-2015-5081.

An issue was discovered on Samsung mobile devices with software through 2016-04-05 (incorporating the Samsung Professional Audio SDK). The Jack audio service doesn't implement access control for shared memory, leading to arbitrary code execution or privilege escalation. The Samsung ID is SVE-2016-5953 (July 2016).

Buffer overflow in prot_get_ring_space in the bcmdhd4358 Wi-Fi driver on the Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920F G920FXXU5EQH7 allows an attacker (who has obtained code execution on the Wi-Fi chip) to overwrite kernel memory due to improper validation of the ring buffer read pointer. The Samsung ID is SVE-2018-12029.

On Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices, a malformed OTA WAP PUSH SMS containing an OMACP message sent remotely triggers an unhandled ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in Samsung's implementation of the WifiServiceImpl class within wifi-service.jar. This causes the Android runtime to continually crash, rendering the device unusable until a factory reset is performed, a subset of SVE-2016-6542.

On Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices, absence of permissions on the BroadcastReceiver responsible for handling the com.[Samsung].android.intent.action.SET_WIFI intent leads to unsolicited configuration messages being handled by wifi-service.jar within the Android Framework, a subset of SVE-2016-6542.

On Samsung Galaxy S4 through S7 devices, the "omacp" app ignores security information embedded in the OMACP messages resulting in remote unsolicited WAP Push SMS messages being accepted, parsed, and handled by the device, leading to unauthorized configuration changes, a subset of SVE-2016-6542.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the SwiftKey language-pack update implementation on Samsung Galaxy S4, S4 Mini, S5, and S6 devices allows remote web servers to write to arbitrary files, and consequently execute arbitrary code in a privileged context, by leveraging control of the skslm.swiftkey.net domain name and providing a .. (dot dot) in an entry in a ZIP archive, as demonstrated by a traversal to the /data/dalvik-cache directory.

Out-of-bounds array access in dhd_rx_frame in drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd4358/dhd_linux.c in the bcmdhd4358 Wi-Fi driver on the Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920F G920FXXU5EQH7 allows an attacker (who has obtained code execution on the Wi-Fi chip) to cause invalid accesses to operating system memory due to improper validation of the network interface index provided by the Wi-Fi chip's firmware.

Buffer overflow in dhd_bus_flow_ring_delete_response in drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd4358/dhd_pcie.c in the bcmdhd4358 Wi-Fi driver on the Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920F G920FXXU5EQH7 allow an attacker (who has obtained code execution on the Wi-Fi chip) to cause the device driver to perform invalid memory accesses.

The SwiftKey language-pack update implementation on Samsung Galaxy S4, S4 Mini, S5, and S6 devices relies on an HTTP connection to the skslm.swiftkey.net server, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to write to language-pack files by modifying an HTTP response. NOTE: CVE-2015-4640 exploitation can be combined with CVE-2015-4641 exploitation for man-in-the-middle code execution.
