Security Issue with Access Control #63

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
SCAPI uses the process name to retrieve the package name of the calling 
application for detecting whether the client will get access to a specific AID 
or not.
The package name of an APK can be faked within Android thus the current 
implementation is not secure!

See SmartcardService.java:getProcessNameFromPid

Attached patch retrieves the package name of the calling application from the 
clients UID.

Thanks a lot to the reporter!
