Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
In FingerprintService, there is a possible bypass for operating system protections that isolate user profiles from each other due to a missing permission check. This could lead to a local information disclosure of metadata about the biometrics of another user on the device with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: AndroidVersions: Android-10Android ID: A-128599663
