CVE-2017-13314
In setAllowOnlyVpnForUids of NetworkManagementService.java, there is a possible security settings bypass due to a missing permission check.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.07%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In setAllowOnlyVpnForUids of NetworkManagementService.java, there is a possible security settings bypass due to a missing permission check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege allowing users to access non-VPN networks, when they are supposed to be restricted to the VPN networks, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
