CVE-2019-1010298 is a buffer overflow vulnerability in Linaro OP-TEE affecting optee_os in version 3.3.0 and earlier. The available information identifies the flaw only at the component level and does not specify the exact vulnerable function or code path. Successful exploitation can lead to code execution within the Trusted Execution Environment core, i.e., in the context of the TEE kernel.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2019-1010298 (also referenced as OP-TEE-2018-0011), targeting a vulnerability in an OP-TEE Trusted Application (TA). The structure consists of build scripts (Makefiles, CMake, Android.mk), a host-side exploit in C (host/exploit.c), and the TA implementation (ta/verify.c) with associated headers. The exploit demonstrates how to establish a session with the TA using the OP-TEE client API and invokes a command (TA_ASYMM_VERIFY) that triggers the vulnerable code path. The TA is identified by the UUID 5dbac793-f574-4871-8ad3-04331ec17f24. The code does not include a weaponized payload but serves as a PoC to show how the vulnerability can be reached and potentially exploited. The attack vector is local, requiring code execution on a device with OP-TEE and the vulnerable TA installed. No network endpoints or external IPs are present; the main fingerprintable endpoint is the TA UUID.
