Descriptions

The vulnerability is the use of implicit PendingIntents without the PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE set that leads to theft and/or (over-)write of arbitrary files with system privilege in the Personalized service ("com.lge.abba") app. The attacker's app, if it had access to app notifications, could intercept them and redirect them to its activity, before making it grant access permissions to content providers with the `android:grantUriPermissions="true"` flag.

La vulnerabilidad es el uso de PendingIntents implícitos sin el conjunto PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE que conduce al robo y/o (sobre)escritura de archivos arbitrarios con privilegios del sistema en la aplicación de servicio personalizado ("com.lge.abba"). La aplicación del atacante, si tuviera acceso a las notificaciones de la aplicación, podría interceptarlas y redirigirlas a su actividad, antes de otorgar permisos de acceso a los proveedores de contenido con el indicador `android:grantUriPermissions="true"`.
