The Search feature in Mozilla Firefox before 42.0 on Android through 4.4 supports search-engine URL registration through an intent and can access this URL in a privileged context in conjunction with the crash reporter, which allows attackers to read log files and visit file: URLs of HTML documents via a crafted application.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-7190 affects old Firefox for Android versions before 42.0 on Android 4.4 or earlier. A malicious app could abuse Firefox search-engine registration and crash-reporting behavior to make Firefox access local logs or file: HTML URLs in a privileged context. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Android 4.4 or older devices running Firefox for Android before 42.0. Modern Firefox or Android deployments are unlikely to be affected based on the supplied version scope. Treat this as a legacy mobile exposure issue. Prioritize only if the organization still operates Android 4.4 or older devices with outdated Firefox, especially where users can install unmanaged apps. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Firefox for Android to version 42.0 or later where applicable.; Remove or isolate unsupported Android 4.4 and older devices.; Restrict installation of untrusted Android applications on managed devices..
