CVE-2022-25826

Local Wi-Fi password disclosure via device log

Published Mar 8, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Information exposure in Samsung Electronics Galaxy S3 PlugIn before 2.2.03.22012751 allows local users to read connected Wi-Fi passwords. The plugin writes password information for the connected Wi-Fi access point into a device log instead of keeping the credential out of log output. Exploitation requires local access and the high privileges needed to read that log; the disclosed consequence is password exposure only.
