CVE-2014-7253
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedFUJITSU F-12C, ARROWS Tab LTE F-01D, ARROWS Kiss F-03D, and REGZA Phone T-01D for Android allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via unspecified vectors.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceThis is a local privilege escalation vulnerability affecting four Fujitsu Android devices (F-12C, ARROWS Tab LTE F-01D, ARROWS Kiss F-03D, REGZA Phone T-01D). A local attacker with access to the device can execute arbitrary commands, likely through an unspecified privilege escalation mechanism in the firmware.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the device modelCheck the device settings: go to Settings > About Phone > Device name or model number. Alternatively, check the physical device label or packaging for the model identifier.Affected if The model matches F-12C, ARROWS Tab LTE F-01D, ARROWS Kiss F-03D, or REGZA Phone T-01D (exact spelling may vary)
-
Confirm vendor identificationVerify the device is manufactured by Fujitsu by checking Settings > About Phone > Manufacturer or Brand.Affected if The manufacturer is Fujitsu and the model matches one of the four affected devices
-
Verify all versions are affectedSince all firmware versions are affected, no specific version check is needed. The vulnerability exists regardless of the Android or firmware version installed.Affected if The device is one of the four listed models - all versions are vulnerable
If the device is a Fujitsu F-12C, ARROWS Tab LTE F-01D, ARROWS Kiss F-03D, or REGZA Phone T-01D, it is affected by this privilege escalation vulnerability regardless of the firmware version.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply any available vendor firmware updates from Fujitsu. If no update is available, implement compensating controls such as restricting physical access, using MDM solutions to limit local privileges, and ensuring devices are not used in untrusted environments.
