Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.32%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in the GAEN (aka Google/Apple Exposure Notifications) protocol through 2020-09-29, as used in COVID-19 applications on Android and iOS. It allows a user to be put in a position where he or she can be coerced into proving or disproving an exposure notification, because of the persistent state of a private framework.
