CVE-2016-8406
An information disclosure vulnerability in kernel components including the ION subsystem, Binder, USB driver and networking subsystem could enable a local malicious application to access data outside of its permission levels.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.05%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
