CVE-2022-27875

Sensitive information theft via Android task hijacking

Published May 5, 2022 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Task hijacking in F5 Access for Android before 3.0.8 allows local users to steal sensitive user information via a hijacked task. F5 identifies Android task hijacking but does not disclose the affected activity or the manifest and task configuration that permits task capture. Exploitation requires user interaction with the hijacked task, and the documented consequence is disclosure rather than alteration or interruption.
