CVE-2012-2674

UnknownEPSS 0.79%

Last modified

CVE-2012-2674 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple integer overflows in the (1) chk_malloc, (2) leak_malloc, and (3) leak_memalign functions in libc/bionic/malloc_debug_leak.c in Bionic (libc) for Android, when libc.debug.malloc is set, make it easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows via a large size value, which causes less memory to be allocated than expected.. EPSS estimates a 0.79% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
