Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Android versions Android-13

Description The issue is related to a missing permission check in Settings, which could lead to local information disclosure of applications allowed to use the network during VPN lockdown mode. No additional execution privileges are needed, and user interaction is not required for exploitation.

Recommendations For Android version Android-13, consider restricting access to the Settings application to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available.
