Impact

Samsung Internet implements an authorization check that incorrectly grants local users access to protected data. The flaw allows a local attacker to read sensitive information that should be restricted, exposing personal or proprietary data and potentially enabling further attacks against the device. This is an example of Improper Access Control (CWE‑284).

Affected Systems

Samsung Internet browser on Samsung Mobile, all versions prior to 30.0.0.39, is affected. Users running any older build are at risk; updating to 30.0.0.39 or later removes the vulnerability.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.3 indicates moderate severity. The vulnerability is exploitable only by local attackers who can act on the device, so the attack vector is local. The EPSS score is not available, and the flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Despite the limited reach, the potential for sensitive data exposure makes the risk noteworthy for environments where local access is not strictly controlled.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Samsung Internet to version 30.0.0.39 or later, which releases the fix for the improper authorization flaw.
  • Limit local user privileges by disabling unused accounts or requiring stronger authentication before granting access to the browser.
  • Enable device‑level security controls, such as lock‑screen authentication and app‑specific permissions, to reduce the likelihood that a local attacker can interact with Samsung Internet without detection.
