Cropping photo throws SecurityException about android-image-cropper HOT 8 CLOSED

@ArthurHub You were right! I couldn't reproduce the issue using your way of selecting files, thank you so much!

from android-image-cropper.

Looks like it has something to do with KitKat documents provider, there are a few relevant question on SO: example1, example2, example3.

Is it 100% reproducible?
Do you experience it on KitKat?
Did you use the "Documents" source for getting image for cropping?
What was the source of the image within the "Documents" UI? (Recent/Drive/Downloads/Gallery/etc.)

from android-image-cropper.

@ArthurHub I'm on android 6.0.1, And yes for some images it's 100% reproducible, The source of images was Recents, and i'm using com.mlsdev.rximagepicker:library as image picker library, I'm wondering that there's no problem before cropping the image and CropImageView loads the URI properly but just after pressing crop it throws that exception!

from android-image-cropper.

100% reproducible is excellent, we can make sure we found a solution then.

I think this library is missing a "persistable" permissions request (relevant doc):

getContentResolver().takePersistableUriPermission(uri, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);

can you try adding it before setting it for cropping.

from android-image-cropper.

@ArthurHub Sure! let me give it a try! thanks

from android-image-cropper.

@ArthurHub It didn't help added another exception:
No persistable permission grants found for UID 10240 and Uri 0 @ content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:74085

from android-image-cropper.

Looks like there are a few things missing in the image pick intent creation, this SO questions cover this problem exactly.

looking at rximagepicker it doesn't use the "proper" intent for KitKat and above API (source)

It should be more like this one:

Intent intent;
if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT){
    intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
    intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);
    intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION);
}else{
    intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
}
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_LOCAL_ONLY, true);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, getResources().getString(R.string.form_pick_photos)), REQUEST_PICK_PHOTO);

Try using your own code to pick the image from the library and see if it works

P.S. a quick look at rximagepicker didn't impress me, there may be better libraries or just write a simple picker like I use in this library sample (source).

@ArthurHub Thanks,i'll try your solution to pickup images and let you know the results!
