I supposedly have an su binary on my Android TV with SUID set.

To be honest I have no idea how it got there because I did not install it myself...

Is it possible to use that binary to gain root access?

It has permissions: -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 317808 Jan 22 2021 esharert

when I do

./esharert -v

It says:

16 com.koushidutta.superuser

But I have no idea how to use it or if it is even possible to use without superuser.apk

I have termux installed and I was wondering if that would work somehow maybe?

Thanks in advance.

I tried searching for that package name but I found no specific examples. Everytime I searched it was all about full rooting using external apps or flashing etc. All I found was a git repository: https://github.com/koush/Superuser But that did not really help me... I would just like to know if that binary gives me anything?

  • Where is the file located? / Does the package name show up in `pm list packages`? If yes, can you maybe start it (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/25398877/2232127 )? / You can also try copying the binary with `adb pull` / What device did you find this on? – JensV Jun 19 '23 at 15:26
