Summary

In the display module, a use-after-free vulnerability exists due to a race condition. This could lead to local privilege escalation if an attacker has already obtained System privilege. User interaction is not required for exploitation.

Risk Assessment

The risk to the organization is the potential for privilege escalation by malicious software or a local actor, which could lead to full device compromise. Prior acquisition of System privilege is required, which limits the risk, but it remains a serious threat.

Recommendation
