Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This Android app can accept unauthorized system-style broadcast messages for power off, reboot, and recovery actions. On affected devices, another app or actor able to send those broadcasts could cause disruption. The business risk is availability loss, especially on managed, kiosk, field, or operational devices where unexpected restarts interrupt service.
Executive priority
Treat this as a targeted availability issue, not a broad network compromise. Prioritize environments where Android device uptime matters, especially shared, unattended, or operational devices.
Technical view
CVE-2023-47355 affects com.eypcnnapps.quickreboot 1.0.8. Public sources describe exposed broadcast receivers, including PowerOff, Reboot, and Recovery handlers, with missing input validation. The CVSS 3.1 score is 7.5, driven by high availability impact and no required privileges or user interaction in the published vector.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to Android devices with the identified Quick Reboot package and version installed. The source bundle does not identify broader products, CPEs, patched versions, or enterprise deployment prevalence.
Exploitation context
The CVE is not listed as CISA KEV in the provided data, and no cited source states active exploitation. The described issue is primarily an availability risk through unauthorized broadcast handling, not a confidentiality or integrity issue.
Researcher notes
Evidence names specific exposed receivers and missing input validation, but affected metadata is sparse. The bundle lists no patch, exploit confirmation, or vendor advisory. Avoid assuming additional versions or exploitation beyond the cited record.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory Android devices for com.eypcnnapps.quickreboot version 1.0.8.
- Remove the app from managed or sensitive devices if it is not required.
- Check the Play Store and vendor guidance for updates or replacement guidance.
- Block or restrict the app through MDM where business impact is unacceptable.
- Prioritize kiosk, field, and operational Android devices for review.
Validation and detection
- Confirm installed package name and version through MDM or device inventory.
- Review application manifest findings for exposed reboot-related broadcast receivers.
- Verify whether affected devices have business processes disrupted by unexpected restart or shutdown.
- Check CVE and vendor references for any later patch or mitigation notice.
- Document whether the app is approved, required, or removable in your environment.
