This attack seems to be explicitly exploiting the Android rendering pipeline through a side-channel.

Wayland, once hardened with security-context doesn't directly expose anything worrying (clipboard stealing is possible but would require window focus or the generation of a window which grabs focus). It remains to be seen if there are side-channels hiding somewhere in it or in the various GPU stacks.
