CVE-2020-4100

Status: ModifiedMedium (4.4)—

"HCL Verse for Android was found to employ dynamic code loading. This mechanism allows a developer to specify which components of the application should not be loaded by default when the application is started. Typically, core components and additional dependencies are loaded natively at runtime; however, dynamically loaded components are only loaded as they are specifically requested. While this can have a positive impact on performance, or grant additional functionality (for example, a non-invasive update feature), it can also open the application to loading unintended code if not implemented properly."

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).

Este mecanismo permite a un desarrollador especificar qué unos componentes de la aplicación no deben ser cargados por defecto cuando la aplicación es iniciada. Típicamente, los componentes básicos y las dependencias adicionales se cargan de forma nativa en el tiempo de ejecución; sin embargo, los componentes cargados dinámicamente sólo se cargan cuando se solicitan específicamente. Si bien esto puede tener un impacto positivo en el rendimiento u otorgar una funcionalidad adicional (por ejemplo, una funcionalidad de actualización no invasiva), también puede abrir la aplicación a la carga de código no deseado si no es implementado apropiadamente"
