Arbitrary app installation via exported component
Published Sep 4, 2025 · Updated Sep 4, 2025
Improper access control in Samsung Good Lock before 2.2.04.95 allows local users to install arbitrary applications from Galaxy Store. An unspecified exported Android component accepts local invocation without the access-control check needed to restrict application-install requests. Samsung has not identified the component or invocation parameters; exploitation requires local access to a Galaxy device and can add attacker-selected Store applications.
