CVE-2024-31332

Local privilege escalation via unrestricted Wi-Fi addition

Published Jul 9, 2024 · Updated Mar 13, 2025

Missing authorization in Android 13 and 14 allows local users to escalate privileges by adding prohibited Wi-Fi connections. AddNetworkFragment and WifiDppConfiguratorActivity omit checks for DISALLOW_ADD_WIFI_CONFIG and remain accessible to restricted users. Exploitation requires local access but no user interaction, enabling a restricted user to add network configurations despite device policy.
