MIUI Wifi Connection Message Vulnerability

I. Summary
Wifi Connection Message is written to a NFC tag, which can be touched by a NFC mobile phone for connecting wireless AP 

automatically. A logic flaw has been found in MIUI that is a Android ROM. The flaw can be used to turn on wifi, with 
the 

help of "wifihandover"(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.endflow.apps.wifiho) or "NFC Tag 

Assistant"（http://app.mi.com/detail/43940）.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
II. Description
According to the NFC Wifi Connection Message Specification, construct a message as follow.
D2 17 45 61 70 70 6C 69 63 61 74 69 6F 6E 2F 76
6E 64 2E 77 66 61 2E 77 73 63 10 4A 00 01 10 10
0E 00 3C 10 26 00 01 01 10 45 00 04 55 43 41 53
10 03 00 02 00 20 10 0F 00 02 00 08 10 27 00 10

Then write the message to NFC tag. For the reason MIUI 5.30（a Android ROM）don't process wifi 
message，"wifihandover" or 

"NFC Tag Assistant" should be installed in the tested phone. Touch the NFC tag with a smart phone with Samsung GT-I9300

(installed with MIUI 5.30， an Android ROM), wifi will be turned on automatically, regardless of whether wifi 
connection 

succeeds or not.
