CVE-2022-20537
In createDialog of WifiScanModeActivity.java, there is a possible way for a Guest user to enable location-sensitive settings due to a missing permission check.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.11%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
