🚨 Public PoC available for high-severity Android ContactsProvider flaw
https://github.com/qm4rs/cve-2026-0075
CVE-2026-0075 affects Android 14, 15, 16, and 16 QPR2 and can allow access to information from the contacts database through a SQL-related side channel without user interaction.
Researcher QM4RS has now released a controlled Android PoC that intentionally requests neither READ_CONTACTS nor WRITE_CONTACTS.
The issue involves ContactsProvider2 returning detailed SQLite errors to callers that lack contacts permission. Those errors could potentially be abused as an information side channel.
Google's fix strips sensitive JSON-related SQLite exception details from unauthorized callers.
The researcher cautions that the PoC is build-specific and does not demonstrate a universal exploitation path across every Android device.
Devices with the June 5, 2026 Android security patch level or later address the issue.
