MEDIUM 6.8EPSS 0.12%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.12%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In hide of WindowState.java, there is a possible way to trick the user into approving permissions due to a tapjacking/overlay attack. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
