Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions 4.1.1 through 4.4.2

Description The issue allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions in the NotificationBroadcastReceiver class, enabling them to make phone calls to arbitrary numbers, send mmi or ussd codes, or hang up ongoing calls via a crafted application.
