| Product: realme GT 2 | |
| Model: RMX3311 | |
| Operating System: Android 14 | |
| UI: realme UI 5.0 | |
| Software Version: RMX3311 | |
| Vulnerability Type: Privacy Violation / Lock Screen Bypass | |

| Vulnerability Description | |
| A privacy-related vulnerability exists in the realme GT 2 (RMX3311) running Android 14 with realme UI 5.0. The issue allows notification content (e.g., chat bubbles from Messenger) to be displayed on the lock screen, even when the privacy settings are configured to hide notification details. This occurs despite enabling the "Show app only" option in the lock screen notification settings. | |
| This issue affects the device even when the user has set the privacy settings to prevent notification content from being visible on the lock screen. | |
| Steps to Reproduce | |
| 1.Go to: Settings → Notifications & Status Bar → Lock Screen → Lock Screen Notifications → Show App Only | |
| 2.Lock the phone. | |
| 3.Perform one of the following actions available on the lock screen: | |
| 4.Swipe right to access the Wallpaper Carousel. | |
| 5.Use the camera shortcut (enabled by default). | |
| 6.Receive a message from a messenger that supports chat bubbles, such as Facebook Messenger. | |
| 7.Observe that the message content is displayed on the lock screen despite the device being locked. | |
| Expected Behavior | |
| Notification content should remain hidden on the lock screen unless the device is unlocked, in accordance with the user's privacy settings. | |
| Impact | |
| Critical privacy violation – allows unauthorized individuals to read private messages without unlocking the device. | |
| Exploitation | |
| An attacker must have physical access to the device with the lock screen enabled and the appropriate notification settings configured in order to exploit this vulnerability. | |
