02 Description
Mali GPU Kernel Driver allows denial of service or disclosure of sensitive information
03 Exploitation and scoring
- Exploitation
- Assessed, none found. CISA's assessment recorded neither public exploit code nor evidence of exploitation when it was made.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
- AutomatablenoAt least one step from reconnaissance to exploitation cannot be reliably automated.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.13% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 2.7% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 7.7 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector
- CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
- NVD analysis status
- Awaiting Analysis. NVD last modified this record on 2026-09-10.
- Red Hat severity
