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 · uneditedImproper access control in the Intel Unite(R) android application before version 4.2.3504 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.
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 · high confidenceIntel Unite Android application versions before 4.2.3504 contain improper access control that allows an authenticated local user to access information they should not have permission to view. This is a local privilege escalation/information disclosure vulnerability requiring authentication and local access to the device.
