CVE-2018-12446
The Passcode feature allows authentication bypass via runtime manipulation that forces a certain method's return value to true.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.28%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in the com.dropbox.android application 98.2.2 for Android.

In other words, an attacker could authenticate with an arbitrary passcode.
