CVE-2020-36245Public exploit

Unauthenticated code execution via exposed ATX-Agent

Published Feb 17, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Code injection in GramAddict before 1.2.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through its Android automation service. GramAddict initializes UIAutomator2, which installs and starts the unauthenticated ATX-Agent HTTP server on the controlled Android device. Network reachability to TCP port 7912, commonly from the same Wi-Fi network, exposes ATX-Agent operations that execute commands, install apps, read device data, and view the screen.
