CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedEkia File Manager 1.2.7 is vulnerable due to its exported ContentProvider, which allows unauthorized local applications to access sensitive filesystem operations without proper permissions. This flaw enables attackers to read, create, overwrite, or delete files within the File Manager's process, potentially leading to data loss or exposure. Developers and security teams managing Android applications should prioritize this vulnerability to mitigate risks associated with unauthorized file access.
Original NVD Description
Ekia File Manager 1.2.7 exposes com.ekia.filecontrolmanager.OpenFileProvider as an exported Android ContentProvider without requiring caller permissions. The provider maps the caller-controlled URI path directly to a filesystem path and passes it to new File(...). It then supports query(), openFile(), and delete() operations. Because the provider is exported and lacks android:permission, android:readPermission, or android:writePermission, another local application can access the provider authority and cause File Manager's process to read, create, overwrite, or delete files that are accessible to that process.
