Samsung Note devices with L(5.0/5.1), M(6.0), and N(7.0) software allow attackers to crash systemUI by leveraging incomplete exception handling. The Samsung ID is SVE-2016-7122.

Samsung Note devices with KK(4.4), L(5.0/5.1), and M(6.0) software allow attackers to crash the system by creating an arbitrarily large number of active VR service threads. The Samsung ID is SVE-2016-7650.

Installing a zero-permission Android application on certain Samsung Android devices with KK(4.4), L(5.0/5.1), and M(6.0) software can continually crash the system_server process in the Android OS. The zero-permission app will create an active install session for a separate app that it has embedded within it. The active install session of the embedded app is performed using the android.content.pm.PackageInstaller class and its nested classes in the Android API. The active install session will write the embedded APK file to the /data/app directory, but the app will not be installed since third-party applications cannot programmatically install apps. Samsung has modified AOSP in order to accelerate the parsing of APKs by introducing the com.android.server.pm.PackagePrefetcher class and its nested classes. These classes will parse the APKs present in the /data/app directory and other directories, even if the app is not actually installed. The embedded APK that was written to the /data/app…

Lack of appropriate exception handling in some receivers of the Telecom application on Samsung Note devices with L(5.0/5.1), M(6.0), and N(7.0) software allows attackers to crash the system easily resulting in a possible DoS attack, or possibly gain privileges. The Samsung ID is SVE-2016-7119.

Integer overflow in SystemUI in KK(4.4) and L(5.0/5.1) on Samsung Note devices allows attackers to cause a denial of service (UI restart) via vectors involving APIs and an activity that computes an out-of-bounds array index, aka SVE-2016-6906.
