Summary

The wave.ai.browser application through 1.0.35 for Android allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code via a crafted intent. It contains a manifest entry that exports the wave.ai.browser.ui.splash.SplashScreen activity. This activity uses a WebView component to display web content and doesn't adequately validate or sanitize the URI or any extra data passed in the intent by a third party application (with no permissions).
