Impact

Improper access control in Samsung Internet prior to 30.0.5.6 enables an attacker who can access the device locally to read sensitive information. The flaw originates from a privilege‑mismanagement weakness classified as a CWE‑284 Access Control Failure. A successful exploit would allow the attacker to compromise confidentiality by bypassing intended data access restrictions.

Affected Systems

Samsung Internet on Samsung Mobile devices running a version earlier than 30.0.5.6 is affected. The vulnerability is present in all builds before this patch release.

Risk and Exploitability
