CVE-2026-71969 PUBLISHED

OP-TEE OS 4.10.0 Buffer Underwrite via RSA NOPAD Encrypt/Decrypt Operations

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 08.08.2026 Published: 10.08.2026 Updated: 10.08.2026

OP-TEE OS through 4.10.0, fixed in commit 7b8b494, contains a buffer underwrite vulnerability in the RSA NOPAD encrypt and decrypt operations within the mbedTLS software backend and SE050 hardware driver that allows a malicious Trusted Application to corrupt secure-world heap memory by supplying an input length exceeding the RSA modulus size. When src_len exceeds rsa_len, the subtraction expression wraps to a large unsigned value, causing a subsequent memcpy to write attacker-controlled data before the destination buffer in S-EL1 secure-world heap memory.
