CVE-2018-17402

Status: ModifiedMedium (5.3)—

The PhonePe wallet (aka com.PhonePe.app) application 3.0.6 through 3.3.26 for Android might allow attackers to discover the Credit/Debit card number, expiration date, and CVV number. NOTE: the vendor says that, to exploit this, the user has to explicitly install a malicious app and provide accessibility permission to the malicious app, that the Android platform provides fair warnings to the users before turning on accessibility for any application, and that it believes it is similar to installing malicious keyboards, or malicious apps taking screenshots

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

NOTA: el fabricante dice que, para explotar esto, el usuario debe instalar explícitamente una aplicación maliciosa y otorgar el permiso de accesibilidad a la aplicación maliciosa, y que la plataforma Android proporciona avisos suficientes a los usuarios antes de habilitar la accesibilidad para cualquier aplicación. Además, cree que es similar a instalar techados maliciosos o a que una aplicación maliciosa tome instantáneas."
