While our previous two blog posts provided technical recommendations for increasing the effort required by attackers to develop 0-click exploit chains, our experience finding, reporting and exploiting these vulnerabilities highlighted some broader issues in the Android ecosystem. This post describes the problems we encountered and recommendations for improvement. Audio Attack Surface The Dolby UDC is part of the 0-click attack surface of most Android devices because of audio transcription in the Google Messages application. Incoming audio messages are transcribed before a user interacts with the message. On Pixel 9, a second process com.google.android.tts also decodes incoming audio. Its purpose is not completely clear, but it seems to be related to making incoming messages searchable.
