At least in some cases, the WebView requires an MPROTECT exception without JavaScript usage. This should not occur, and adding PaX exceptions for the apps is not a solution to the problem. It should be fixed in the WebView, but if that's not possible the automatic exceptions will need to be extended to all apps using it which would be far from ideal. AFAIK, this used to work properly in the past.

Apps where this is has been confirmed:

  • ConnectBot 1.8.6

This will be handled differently when the PaX userspace features are integrated again.
