CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2025-47390 is a high-severity Buffer Over-read (CWE-126) vulnerability in Qualcomm Qcm5430 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 7.8 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique OS Credential Dumping (T1003); ranked at the 0.9th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-47390 is a memory corruption vulnerability, classified under CWE-126 (Buffer Over-read), that occurs while preprocessing IOCTL requests in the JPEG driver. It affects Qualcomm products, as indicated by the vendor's security bulletin.
The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating a high-severity issue exploitable by a local attacker with low privileges. Exploitation requires low complexity and no user interaction, potentially allowing the attacker to achieve high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, such as arbitrary code execution or system denial of service.
Qualcomm has published a security bulletin in April 2026 addressing this vulnerability, available at https://docs.qualcomm.com/product/publicresources/securitybulletin/april-2026-bulletin.html, which provides details on affected versions and recommended mitigations or patches.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation (static analysis, fuzzing, bounds checking tests) directly finds buffer over-read flaws.
Engineering principles such as memory-safe design and bounds-checked abstractions structurally stop introduction of out-of-bounds reads.
Process isolation limits the blast radius of an over-read to the compromised domain.
Input validation enforces length and index constraints that prevent many externally triggered over-reads.

Secure development practices directly prevent introduction of buffer over-read weaknesses.
Vulnerability identification processes can discover buffer over-read flaws via scanning or review.
Patching or replacing vulnerable software removes known instances of buffer over-read bugs.

Security testing in development can detect buffer over-reads before release.
Secure SDLC mandates input validation and bounds checking that can prevent buffer over-reads.
Application security requirements can specify buffer-size and bounds-checking rules.
Secure architecture principles include memory-safety and bounds-checking design choices.
Secure coding standards directly require bounds-checked buffer access, mitigating over-reads.
