Summary

The Android version of the receive_sharing_intent Flutter/Dart package, versions 1.4.1 through 1.9.0, has a path traversal flaw in how it handles shared file names. A malicious app installed on the same device can exploit this without logging in or any user interaction to overwrite files within the receiving app's private storage.

Read the original description

The Android implementation of the Flutter/Dart receive_sharing_intent package, versions 1.4.1 through 1.9.0, contains a path traversal vulnerability in FileDirectory.getDataColumn that allows a malicious co-resident application to write files outside the intended cache directory by supplying a crafted _display_name value from an untrusted ContentProvider. Attackers can use a path-shaped display name ../databases/proof.txt combined with a controlled content stream to write to arbitrary locations within the receiving application's private sandbox under its UID, achieving file overwrite without user interaction.
