Google researchers have uncovered over nine vulnerabilities in Qualcomm 's Adreno GPU , an integrated graphics processing unit in Snapdragon processors.

Due to the GPU having kernel privileges, the security flaws pose significant risks since they could allow attackers to gain full control of a device.
