In all android releases (Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android) from CAF using the linux kernel, asynchronous callbacks received a pointer to a callers local variable. Should the caller return early (e.g., timeout), the callback will dereference an invalid pointer.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
