CVE-2026-58460 Details
Description
react-native-receive-sharing-intent contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a co-resident malicious application to write files outside the intended cache directory by supplying a crafted _display_name value containing dot-dot path components through a malicious ContentProvider. Attackers can fire an explicit ACTION_SEND intent at the consuming app's exported share-receiver activity to overwrite arbitrary files in the consuming app's private data directory, including databases, shared preferences, and cached configuration, with attacker-controlled content.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in react-native-receive-sharing-intent versions through commit b375726. This vulnerability allows a co-resident malicious application to write files outside the designated cache directory. By sending a crafted _display_name value that includes dot-dot path components through a malicious ContentProvider, attackers can manipulate file paths. The exploitation involves firing an ACTION_SEND intent to the target app's exported share-receiver activity, which can overwrite arbitrary files in the app's private data directory. This includes sensitive data such as databases, shared preferences, and cached configuration, with content controlled by the attacker.
Users can update to the latest version of react-native-receive-sharing-intent, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
