CVE-2026-40000
Third-party applications can launch this Activity and supply arbitrary file paths (e.g., content://zte.com.cn.filer.fileprovider/root_path), enabling file access with the privilege level of ZTE File Manager.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.30%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The Activity zte.com.cn.filer/zte.com.cn.filer.FilePreViewActivity within ZTE File Manager is designed to preview compressed files. Third-party applications can launch this Activity and supply arbitrary file paths (e.g., content://zte.com.cn.filer.fileprovider/root_path), enabling file access with the privilege level of ZTE File Manager. This allows unrooted devices to read files under certain system directories such as /data/data and /data/local/tmp. If access restrictions do not block untrusted applications, additional directories may also be accessible.
