An issue was discovered in DPU in Samsung Mobile Processor Exynos 1280, 2200, 1380, 1480, 2400, 1580, 2500, 1680, and 2600. A double-free vulnerability in the Samsung Exynos DPU driver (due to improper pointer management during DMA buffer reallocation) leads to kernel memory corruption and a potential use-after-free.
