The updateMessageStatus function in Android 5.1.1 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer exception and process crash).
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
