In multiple functions of ZygoteProcess.java, there is a possible way to achieve code execution as any app via WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS due to unsafe deserialization. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with User execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

In JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2020.3, potentially insecure deserialization of the workspace model could lead to local code execution.

The InputMethod module has a vulnerability of serialization/deserialization mismatch. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may cause privilege escalation.

In onReceive of AppRestrictionsFragment.java, there is a possible escalation of privilege due to unsafe deserialization. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.

An issue was discovered in the Maven Extension plugin before 1.6 for Gradle Enterprise. The extension uses a socket connection to send serialized Java objects. Deserialization is not restricted to an allow-list, thus allowing an attacker to achieve code execution via a malicious deserialization gadget chain. The socket is not bound exclusively to localhost. The port this socket is assigned to is randomly selected and is not intentionally exposed to the public (either by design or documentation). This could potentially be used to achieve remote code execution and local privilege escalation.
