This article seems to be saying that’s it’s not only possible, it’s being actively (and I would assume widely) exploited on current versions of Android. Google is supposed to catch any abuses of listed exceptions, but they are either missing a bunch or letting them intentionally slide through. Either way, apps being able to see other apps is a big security risk that IMO only the user should be able to explicitly allow, and on a case-by-case basis.
