Hot Take:

Google’s Quick Share: The gift that keeps on giving… cyber vulnerabilities, that is! It’s like a never-ending software soap opera, and SafeBreach is determined to spill all the tea.

Key Points:

  • Google’s initial patches for Quick Share vulnerabilities were incomplete and easily bypassed.
  • SafeBreach identified 10 flaws in Quick Share for Windows, leading to potential RCE.
  • New bypass method, CVE-2024-10668, discovered by SafeBreach and patched in November 2024.
  • Quick Share was initially for Android, then expanded to Windows and Chrome.
  • Vulnerabilities could lead to unauthorized file writes and denial-of-service attacks.
