In onCreate of NotificationAccessConfirmationActivity.java , there is a possible way to hide an app with notification access in Settings due to a missing permission check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.

Weakness 

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
