Published Aug 22, 2025 · Updated Sep 1, 2025

Task hijacking in Reolink 4.54.0.4.20250526 allows attackers to place malicious content in the app's Android task. The Android manifest uses inappropriate taskAffinity settings, allowing another installed app to associate its activity with Reolink's task. A malicious app must be present on the same device; Reolink disputes the finding and calls the behavior intentional.
