Local information disclosure via relative path traversal
Published Aug 10, 2026 · Updated Aug 10, 2026
Relative path traversal in Samsung Health before 7.0.0 allows local users to read sensitive information through crafted paths. Samsung identifies improper validation as the cause but has not disclosed the affected component, path source, or filesystem operation. Exploitation requires local access but no prior privileges or user interaction, and no data modification or service interruption is reported.
