It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown code of the component Modem. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a buffer overflow vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-120. The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Memory corruption in modem due to buffer overflow while processing a PPP packet
