Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.08%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In multiple functions of AppOpsService.java, there is a possible way for unprivileged apps to read their own restrictRead app-op states due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
