Emergency-call denial via insufficient permission check
Published Jan 17, 2025 · Updated Mar 13, 2025
Denial of service in Google Android 6.0 through 8.1 allows local users to terminate emergency calls without user interaction. PhoneInterfaceManager.endCallForSubscriber used enforceCallPermission before dispatching CMD_END_CALL instead of requiring MODIFY_PHONE_STATE. A locally installed app needs no additional execution privileges, and the bounded impact is loss of emergency-call availability.
