Hi everyone, I tried to understand the protection levels of permissions. I have a question about how to get the certificate to use a "signature" permission for the third-party application? Following the manifestation file https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/res/AndroidManifest.xml, we have some protection levels of permissions, such as signature|system|development, signature|system, system|signature, signature|development|appop, signature|privileged, signature|installer, signature. I know that the permissions with ".*|system|.*" are used only for the system/manufacturer applications. But for "signature", "signature|development|appop" levels, I wonder whether a third-party application can get the certificate to use them? Because I saw that Facebook has the permission "Battery_stats" in his list of permissions. I tried to find the information to confirm this question, but found no clear confirmation. If a third-party application can get the certificate, could you please detail how they can get it?
