tl;dr: Google is considering restricting Android's ADB daemon to only bind to the wlan0 interface in response to CVE-2026-0073, which would break on-device ADB (loopback connections used by tools like Shizuku, App Manager, and Canta) along with ADB over VPN or Ethernet. The author argues this framing treats legitimate on-device ADB use as an exploit vector, when in practice attackers can't start ADBD themselves, and proposes a persistent user-toggleable setting instead of a hard block. | |
