It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-21445 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Samsung Android. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-21445/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-21445/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-21445","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-21445/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-21445","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q22j-6g9r-wc97"],"analysis":{"component_type":"mobile_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Samsung MyFiles app","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A local attacker can write files with elevated privileges in the Samsung MyFiles app due to improper access control on implicit intents.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Samsung Mobile","cpe":[{"product":"android","vendor":"samsung"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-668","name":"Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere"},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Improper access control vulnerability in MyFiles prior to versions 12.2.09 in Android R(11), 13.1.03.501 in Android S(12) and 14.1.00.422 in Android T(13) allows local attacker to write file with MyFiles privilege via implicit intent.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Missing authorization in The patch adds proper access control to use explicit intent.","id":"CVE-2023-21445","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"samsung:android","products":["samsung:android"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in MyFiles","id":"CVE-2023-21446"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in Samsung Flow for PC","id":"CVE-2023-21444"},"products":["The patch adds proper access control to use explicit intent."],"published":"2023-02-09","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2025-21042","kev_date_added":"2025-11-10","published":"2025-09-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2025-21043","kev_date_added":"2025-10-02","published":"2025-09-12"},{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Out-of-Bounds Read","id":"CVE-2021-25487","kev_date_added":"2023-06-29","published":"2021-10-06"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Race Condition","id":"CVE-2021-25394","kev_date_added":"2023-06-29","published":"2021-06-11"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Race Condition","id":"CVE-2021-25395","kev_date_added":"2023-06-29","published":"2021-06-11"},{"cvss_score":6.2,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2021-25369","kev_date_added":"2022-11-08","published":"2021-03-26"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Samsung Mobile Devices Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2021-25370","kev_date_added":"2022-11-08","published":"2021-03-26"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-03-24","vendors":["Samsung Mobile"]},"summary":"A local attacker can write files with elevated privileges in the Samsung MyFiles app due to improper access control on implicit intents.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-21445/"}
