The content provider named com.adups.fota.sysoper.provider.InfoProvider in the app with a package name of com.adups.fota.sysoper allows any app on the device to read, write, and delete files as the system user. In the com.adups.fota.sysoper app's AndroidManifest.xml file, it sets the android:sharedUserId attribute to a value of android.uid.system which makes it execute as the system user, which is a very privileged user on the device. This allows a third-party app to read, write, and delete files owned by the system user. The third-party app can modify the /data/system/users/0/settings_secure.xml file to add an app as a notification listener to be able to receive the text of notifications as they are received on the device. This also allows the /data/system/users/0/accounts.db to be read which contains authentication tokens for various accounts on the device. The third-party app can obtain privileged information and also modify files to obtain more privileges on the device.","severity":{"version":"3.0","score":7.8,"vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","level":"high","assessor":"primary","from":"nvd"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-08","score":0.00443,"percentile":0.38759,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-310"],"published":"2017-01-13T09:00:00Z","modified":"2026-06-17T00:39:07Z","products":[{"vendor":"adups","product":"adups_fota"}],"references":[{"url":"https://www.kryptowire.com/adups_security_analysis.html","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred","Technical Description","Third Party Advisory"]},{"url":"http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/96854","tags":["vdb-entry","x_refsource_BID","x_transferred"]},{"url":"https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/16/us/politics/china-phones-software-security.html","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred","Press/Media Coverage"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-10136"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-j3w8-vm75-wjhh"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2016-10136","description":"An issue was discovered on BLU R1 HD devices with Shanghai Adups software.
