Samsung Addresses Security Vulnerabilities in Galaxy Phones
A Mali GPU security flaw affecting millions of Samsung phones running on Exynos chipsets was confirmed last year and remains unpatched, leaving devices vulnerable to the exploit chain that hackers successfully exploited to lead unsuspecting Samsung Internet users to malicious websites. Although Samsung fixed its Samsung Internet browser in December 2022, the Mali security vulnerability (CVE-2022-22706) remains unpatched on Samsung devices equipped with Exynos chipsets and Mali GPUs, leaving them vulnerable to the Mali GPU kernel driver exploit.
