DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in Moovit Bus & Public Transit App 1.18 on Android. This affects an unknown part of the component com.tranzmate. Executing a manipulation can lead to improper authorization in handler for custom url scheme. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been published and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Improper authorization in Moovit Bus & Public Transit App 1.18 on Android exposes the com.tranzmate custom URL scheme handler to invocation by any locally installed application without proper authorization checks, enabling information disclosure and limited unauthorized manipulation of app functionality. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-939 and is restricted to local attack vectors, meaning a co-resident malicious application on the same Android device is required to trigger it. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the attacker control a second application installed on the same Android device as Moovit Bus & Public Transit App 1.18 - this is the concrete prerequisite derived from the local attack vector (AV:L) and low-privilege requirement (PR:L in CVSS 4.0). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 base score of 4.8 (Medium) with vector AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L reflects a locally-exploitable flaw with low complexity and limited impact across all three impact dimensions. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A threat actor distributes a malicious Android application - potentially via sideloading or a third-party app store - that, once installed on the victim's device, silently sends a crafted Intent targeting the com.tranzmate custom URL scheme handler in Moovit. Because the handler does not enforce authorization on the calling application, it processes the request and may return or expose transit account data, session tokens, or route information to the malicious app. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the vendor did not respond to the responsible disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
