Local location disclosure via trusted camera intent
Published Feb 16, 2024 · Updated Nov 4, 2024
Information disclosure in Google Android 11, 12, 12L, 13 and 14 allows local users to obtain location data through a camera intent. CameraActivity.shouldUseNoOpLocation treats a null calling package from startActivity as trusted and supplies location information instead of a no-op location. Exploitation requires user interaction with an attacker-initiated camera activity; no additional execution privileges are required, and disclosure is limited to location information.
