Sensitive information disclosure via implicit intent
Published Aug 6, 2025 · Updated Aug 6, 2025
Use of an implicit intent in Samsung Smart View before Android 16 allows local users to access sensitive information. Smart View sends sensitive communication through an implicit Android intent without the permission needed to restrict which local component can receive it. A low-privileged local application can intercept the communication; the documented impact is limited to information disclosure.
