Live demos show a netcat + yes DoS via endless stream that crashes apps, plaintext SD storage leaking identities (one case risks death), XSS from concatenating unencoded SD text, CSS copy‑paste payloads that trigger path traversal overwrites, RTL URL spoofing, custom URL handlers that quit apps, update checks over HTTP that trigger premium dialers, hardcoded XOR/AES keys discoverable with a Python snippet, and a SQLi that loads an extension to get code execution (SQLi → load .so → RCE).
