Local information disclosure via fingerprint sensor side channel
Published Jun 13, 2024 · Updated Nov 6, 2024
Side-channel information disclosure in the Google Android kernel fingerprint sensor allows local users to read sensitive data. Google identifies the fingerprint sensor as the affected subcomponent but keeps the issue record private and does not disclose the discrepant observable or exposed data. A local low-privileged user can trigger the disclosure without user interaction; the published impact is limited to confidentiality.
