In multiple functions of SensorService.cpp, there is a possible access of accurate sensor data due to a permissions bypass vulnerability (CVE-2023-21034). This vulnerability affects Android 13 and was disclosed in the March 2023 security bulletin. The issue allows local attackers with User execution privileges to bypass permissions and access sensor data without proper authorization (Android Bulletin).
The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 7.8 (HIGH) with the following vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. The vulnerability exists in the SensorService.cpp component and involves incorrect authorization mechanisms that could allow unauthorized access to sensor data. User interaction is not required for exploitation, making it more straightforward to exploit once local access is obtained (NVD).
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to accurate sensor data, potentially compromising user privacy and security. The high CVSS score indicates that the vulnerability can result in a complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected component within the scope of the sensor service (NVD).
Google addressed this vulnerability in the Android March 2023 security patch level. Users should update their Android devices to the latest available security patch to protect against this vulnerability. The fix was included in the March 2023 security bulletin for Pixel devices (Android Bulletin).
