Update: Baseband firmware trace analysis confirms buffer overflow, not just 
array index issue.

Evidence from Jan 10 crash:
- Explicit "!OVERFLOW!" marker in baseband trace (offset 0x00013365)
- Watchdog reset: "rst wdog,6vdt_in_1" 
- Crash recovery: "gcb_crash_wakeup"
- SDMState active at crash time

Corrected flow: SDM transition → buffer overflow in baseband firmware → memory 
corruption → firmware deadlock → watchdog timeout → forced reboot

Same trigger pattern on Jan 10, 11, 14. CWE-120 (Buffer Overflow)
