| Title | Stack overflow in Modem |
| Severity | Critical |
| Vulnerability Type | RCE |
| CWE | CWE-121 Stack Overflow |
| Description | In Modem, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote code execution, if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. |
