    The Backup and Restore feature in Mobotap Dolphin Browser for Android 12.0.2 suffers from an arbitrary file write vulnerability when attempting to restore browser settings from a malicious Dolphin Browser backup file.

Every time the Dolphin Browser is launched, it will attempt to run the malicious executable from disk, thus executing the attacker's code.
