Foreground app disclosure through missing access protection
Published Apr 11, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Information exposure in Samsung One UI Home before SMR April-2022 Release 1 allows local users to read foreground app information. Samsung identifies One UI Home as the affected locus but has not disclosed which interface returns the foreground-app state or how the permission check fails. Exploitation requires local execution and user interaction, and the reported consequence is limited to identifying the currently launched foreground app.
