Stumping the Mobile Chipset

Explore privilege escalation vulnerabilities in Qualcomm's Android chipsets through this in-depth conference talk from HITB Security Conference. Delve into the researchers' examination of Qualcomm's code in Android devices, uncovering multiple security issues across various subsystems. Learn about detailed exploitation techniques that overcome existing mitigations in Android's Linux kernel, allowing for kernel-code execution, privilege elevation, and complete SELinux bypass. Gain insights from security experts Adam Donenfeld and Yaniv Mordekhay as they discuss their findings and demonstrate how these vulnerabilities can be exploited to gain root privileges on affected devices.
