Improper input validation in Samsung Contacts prior to SMR Aug-2026 Release 1 allows physical attackers to access data across multiple user profiles.
AnalysisAI
Samsung Contacts on Samsung Mobile Devices prior to SMR Aug-2026 Release 1 exposes contact data across Android user profiles to an attacker with physical device access, due to improper input validation that fails to enforce inter-profile data isolation. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms both the physical access prerequisite (AV:P) and the scope extension to a secondary user's data (SC:H), consistent with a profile boundary bypass in a multi-user Android environment. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Physical access to the Samsung device is required (confirmed by AV:P in the provided CVSS 4.0 vector) - remote or network-based exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N) yields a score of 6.7, accurately reflecting a high-confidentiality-impact flaw that nonetheless requires physical device presence - a major real-world limiter. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | The primary fix is to apply the August 2026 Samsung Security Maintenance Release (SMR Aug-2026 Release 1), which includes the patched version of Samsung Contacts. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
