To wrap this up, here is the response from the Edge team on 10 December:
This has been addressed in the latest version of Microsoft Edge on Android. We encourage you to update the app from the Google Play Store and ensure you are on version 45.11.2.5116.
Microsoft Edge team would be able to response to this issue.
However, as it has been shown in the demo , there is a need to install malicious application to perform this action and by default Android will block running apps from untrusted sources and I always recommend Android user to use Anti-Malware product (there are plenty of free apps on Google Play).
