CVE-2022-20112
In getAvailabilityStatus of PrivateDnsPreferenceController.java, there is a possible way for a guest user to change private DNS settings due to a permissions bypass.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.10%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
