Unintended Bluetooth unpairing via injected app label
Published Jun 1, 2026 · Updated Jun 1, 2026
UI misrepresentation in Android 16 and 16 QPR2 allows local users to cause unintended Bluetooth unpairing via a crafted app label. ForgetDeviceDialogFragment.getAppLabel places an untrusted package label in the unpair confirmation without safe-label sanitization. A low-privileged local app controls the displayed label; exploitation needs no user interaction and is bounded to unintended device removal.
