No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

In DA, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local denial of service, if an attacker has physical access to the device, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: ALPS10991588 (Note: For MT6880, MT6890, MT6990, MT6988, MT6986, MT6813) / AUTO00851171 (Note: For MT2735, MT2737); Issue ID: MSV-7790.
