    Just raising awareness of a new security concern.  This Symantec blog post has the details:

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/blogs/android-vulnerability-privilege-escalation-lollipop-only-exception

     

    "As of now, in order to exploit this vulnerability, one need to get a malicious app installed onto the target device."

     

    Many thanks,
