In the development options section of the Settings app, there is a possible authentication bypass due to a missing permission check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.
The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
A capture-replay flaw exists when the design of the product makes it possible for a malicious user to sniff network traffic and bypass authentication by replaying it to the server in question to the same effect as the original message (or with minor changes).
