Incorrect privilege assignment in Telephony prior to SMR Jun-2026 Release 1 allows local attackers to access sensitive information.
AnalysisAI
Incorrect privilege assignment in the Telephony component of Samsung Mobile devices prior to SMR Jun-2026 Release 1 permits local attackers to access sensitive information without requiring prior privileges or user interaction. Affecting devices running Android 14, 15, and 16, the flaw stems from improper access controls within the telephony subsystem. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the low attack complexity and absence of privilege prerequisites lower the bar for local exploitation.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in the Telephony subsystem of Samsung's Android-based mobile software stack, identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:samsung_mobile:samsung_mobile_devices:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The root cause is incorrect privilege assignment - a class of access control flaw where a process or component is granted more permissions than its function warrants, potentially allowing lower-trust callers to read privileged telephony data (e.g., call records, SIM identifiers, subscriber data, or network state). While CWE classification is listed as N/A by the reporter, this pattern closely aligns with CWE-266 (Incorrect Privilege Assignment) or CWE-732 (Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource). The issue is fixed in Samsung's monthly Security Maintenance Release (SMR) cycle, specifically the June 2026 release targeting Android 14, 15, and 16 firmware branches.
RemediationAI
The vendor-released patch is SMR Jun-2026 Release 1, delivered via Samsung's monthly Security Maintenance Release for devices on Android 14, 15, and 16. Users and administrators should apply the June 2026 OTA update immediately through Settings > Software Update. The full advisory is published at https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb?year=2026&month=06. If the update cannot be applied immediately, enterprise administrators using Samsung Knox or MDM solutions can restrict third-party application access to Telephony APIs as a compensating control, though this may impact legitimate telephony-dependent applications. Disabling untrusted sideloaded applications reduces the local attacker surface until the patch is deployed.
