CVE-2018-9142
On Samsung mobile devices with N(7.x) software, attackers can install an arbitrary APK in the Secure Folder SD Card area because of faulty validation of a package signature and package name, aka SVE-2017-10932.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.79%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
