CVE-2026-127209

Xiaomi Mi Browser < 14.66.0 Path Traversal via ThirdDocViewerActivity

  • Medium 5.1
  • A public exploit reference is listed

Description

Xiaomi Mi Browser Android Application (com.mi.globalbrowser) before 14.66.0-gn contains a path traversal vulnerability in the exported ThirdDocViewerActivity component, where CopyExternalFile.copyFromUri() copies content provider streams using an unsanitized filename from the _display_name column without basename reduction or canonical-path checks. A zero-permission co-resident malicious application can supply a crafted content provider with a _display_name containing .. sequences to make the browser write attacker-controlled bytes to an arbitrary path within its external storage directory, escaping the intended cache_docs staging location without requiring user interaction.
