CVE-2017-5624

CRITICAL

OxygenOS < 4.0.2 - Persistent Privilege Escalation via Fastboot dm-verity Disable

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

An issue was discovered in OxygenOS before 4.0.3 for OnePlus 3 and 3T. The attacker can persistently make the (locked) bootloader start the platform with dm-verity disabled, by issuing the 'fastboot oem disable_dm_verity' command. Having dm-verity disabled, the kernel will not verify the system partition (and any other dm-verity protected partition), which may allow for persistent code execution and privilege escalation.
