AI Analysis

Impact

A component of Motorola’s system application was exported without permission, permitting an untrusted application to revoke runtime permissions from other installed apps on the device. This flaw allows an attacker to remove critical permissions from legitimate apps, potentially disrupting their functionality or gaining further privilege escalation by altering permission states. The weakness is classified as CWE-862, indicating that the system failed to enforce proper access controls.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Motorola devices running the Setup App component of the system, specifically versions that include the exported component prior to the 2026‑01‑01 Software Product Line release. Devices with older versions of the Setup App component are impacted and should be identified and upgraded accordingly.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.8 indicates a moderate risk level. EPSS data is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is local or inter‑process communication where a malicious app can call the improperly exported component. Since the flaw requires the presence of another application on the device, exploitation is plausible but not guaranteed without additional local access. The risk remains moderate until an official update is applied.

Remediation

Vendor Solution

Please ensure that your device is upgraded to a Setup application version later than the 2026-01-01 SPL.


OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Motorola Setup App upgrade to a version later than the 2026‑01‑01 SPL.
  • Revoke or deny runtime permissions for applications that are no longer required, ensuring that only necessary permissions remain granted.
  • Regularly monitor the device for unexpected permission revocation events and investigate any unauthorized changes promptly.
