Android : ContentProvider without permissions

Classification

OWASP Mobile Top 10 2014
OWASP Mobile Top 10 2016

Overview

The application tries to request the content provider perhaps without requesting the necessary permission.

In order to use certain Android functionality, the application must get the permission from the user during installation. The developer must specify the required permissions in the Manifest file using <uses-permission/> tags. If it had not been done, the operations that have not received a permission crash with java.lang.SecurityException or without exceptions.
