The content provider named com.adups.fota.sysoper.provider.InfoProvider in the app with a package name of com.adups.fota.sysoper allows any app on the device to read, write, and delete files as the system user. In the com.adups.fota.sysoper app's AndroidManifest.xml file, it sets the android:sharedUserId attribute to a value of android.uid.system which makes it execute as the system user, which is a very privileged user on the device. This allows a third-party app to read, write, and delete the user's sent and received text messages and call log. This allows a third-party app to obtain PII from the user without permission to do so." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "96852", "refsource": "BID", "url": "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/96852" }, { "name": "https://www.kryptowire.com/adups_security_analysis.html", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://www.kryptowire.com/adups_security_analysis.html" }, { "name": "https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/16/us/politics/china-phones-software-security.html", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/16/us/politics/china-phones-software-security.html" } ] } }
