Home Assistant: Exported BroadcastReceiver allows local apps to spoof device location
Summary
Home Assistant is open source home automation software that puts local control and privacy first. Prior to 2026.5.3, the LocationSensorManager BroadcastReceiver is exported with no permission. Any installed app, with zero runtime permissions, can broadcast a forged Google Play Services LocationResult directly to it; the receiver trusts the extra and forwards it to the user's Home Assistant server as the device's real location. This bypasses Android's developer-mode "Mock Location" gate and allows a local malicious app to drive zone-based automations (unlock door / disarm alarm / open garage) by faking the user's GPS position. This vulnerability is fixed in 2026.5.3.

Mitigation
Phase: Build and Compilation
Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction
Description:
- If they do not need to be shared by other applications, explicitly mark components with android:exported="false" in the application manifest.
Mitigation
Phase: Build and Compilation
Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction
Description:
- If you only intend to use exported components between related apps under your control, use android:protectionLevel="signature" in the xml manifest to restrict access to applications signed by you.

Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction
Description:
- Limit Content Provider permissions (read/write) as appropriate.
