Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
In btif_to_bta_response of btif_gatt_util.cc, there is a possible out of bounds read due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis
How this class of weakness works · CWE-125

The code reads past the end (or before the start) of a buffer, returning memory that was never meant to be exposed. Attackers use it to leak secrets like keys or to defeat memory-protection defences. Remediation is validating indices and lengths before every read.

Recommended fix High confidence

Android 14 or later; or January 2024 Android Security Patch Level or later for Android 11-13

  1. 1. Verify the Android version currently installed on the device via Settings > About Phone > Android version
  2. 2. Check if your device manufacturer has released a security patch for CVE-2024-0030 (typically included in Android Security Bulletin patches for January 2024 or later)
  3. 3. If available, install the latest security patch from your device manufacturer
  4. 4. Alternatively, upgrade to Android 14 (or the latest available Android version for your device) which contains the fix for this vulnerability
  5. 5. After updating, verify the Android version and security patch level via Settings > About Phone > Security patch level
Caveat Upgrading Android major versions may cause compatibility issues with apps or result in data loss if not backed up; some devices may not receive Android 14 updates
