FKIE_CVE-2018-6598
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2018-08-29 19:29 - Updated: 2026-06-17 02:02
Severity
Summary
An issue was discovered on Orbic Wonder Orbic/RC555L/RC555L:7.1.2/N2G47H/329100b:user/release-keys devices. Any app co-located on the device can send an intent to factory reset the device programmatically because of com.android.server.MasterClearReceiver. This does not require any user interaction and does not require any permission to perform. A factory reset will remove all user data from the device. This will result in the loss of any data that the user has not backed up or synced externally. This capability to perform a factory reset is not directly available to third-party apps (those that the user installs themselves), although this capability is present in an unprotected component of the Android OS. This vulnerability is not present in Google's Android Open Source Project (AOSP) code. Therefore, it was introduced by Orbic or another entity in the supply chain.

"value": "Se ha descubierto un problema en dispositivos Orbic Wonder Orbic/RC555L/RC555L:7.1.2/N2G47H/329100b:user/release-keys. Cualquier aplicaci\u00f3n situada en el dispositivo puede enviar un intent para restaurar program\u00e1ticamente el dispositivo a su estado de f\u00e1brica debido a com.android.server.MasterClearReceiver. Esto no requiere interacci\u00f3n por parte del usuario y no requiere permisos para su ejecuci\u00f3n. Una restauraci\u00f3n de f\u00e1brica eliminar\u00e1 todos los datos del usuario del dispositivo. Esto resultar\u00e1 en la p\u00e9rdida de cualquier dato que el usuario no haya sincronizado externamente o del que no tenga una copia de seguridad. Esta capacidad para realizar una restauraci\u00f3n de f\u00e1brica no est\u00e1 directamente disponible a aplicaciones de terceros (las que el usuario instala motu proprio), aunque la funcionalidad est\u00e1 presente en un componente no protegido del sistema operativo Android. Esta vulnerabilidad no est\u00e1 presente en el c\u00f3digo AOSP (Android Open Source Project) de Google. Por lo tanto, fue introducido por Orbic o por otra entidad de la cadena de suministro."
