That's what I'm wondering too. This is in uvcvideo, processing data from USB-connected cameras.
So, maybe you can exploit it by connecting a camera to the USB port? That would be bad enough. But this code only seems to be called if a video stream is active. So things like unlocking a locked phone seems improbable to be possible.
- KwanEsq 2y agoWell that depends, the camera app is generally accessible on locked phones, so the question is, can the camera app make use of USB-connected cameras, and if so is there any restriction on accessing such cameras in locked mode (like there is a restriction on accessing past photos).
- hkwerf 2y agoI'm not sure, most vendor camera apps were pretty much tied to the particular camera on the phone, on the phones I've had. For UVC, I usually needed to use another camera app. You could try to initiate a video call with the locked device, though.
