Details

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. This could lead to local escalation of privilege from the Guest user with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
