CVE-2026-73335 Aug 26, 04:54 MEDIUM This Month

Improper authorization in Myna Point's Android Intent handler allows a co-installed malicious application to invoke the app's custom URL scheme handler without caller validation, triggering arbitrary JavaScript execution within the app's WebView context. All versions of the Japanese government digital identity application (Digital Agency, CPE wildcard) appear affected per JVN advisory JVN67155805. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the attack surface is inherently local and requires a malicious app on the same device.

CVE-2026-21075 Aug 10, 07:42 MEDIUM This Month

Improper authorization in the custom URL scheme handler of Samsung's My Galaxy app (all versions prior to 6.3) exposes sensitive information to remote attackers. The flaw exists because the handler processes inbound custom URL scheme invocations without enforcing adequate authorization checks, enabling an attacker-controlled web page or application to silently extract user data when a victim interacts with a crafted link. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA KEV does not list this as actively exploited, but the zero-privilege requirement from the attacker's side and the broad Samsung device install base make timely patching advisable.

SemClipboardService on Samsung Mobile Devices prior to SMR Aug-2026 Release 1 exposes an authorization bypass that allows a locally authenticated attacker to read clipboard contents without the expected permission check. The flaw is confined to Samsung's proprietary clipboard service and does not affect stock Android builds. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no active exploitation is listed in CISA KEV.

CVE-2026-12190 Jun 14, 22:45 MEDIUM This Month

Improper authorization in the custom URL scheme handler of Genspark AI Workspace App 2.8.4 on Android allows a local low-privileged attacker to invoke restricted application functionality via the ai.mainfunc.genspark component without proper access control. The flaw is classified under CWE-939, affecting inter-app communication on Android where the URL scheme handler fails to verify the caller's authorization. No patch is available as the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure; no public exploit or CISA KEV confirmation exists at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-12189 Jun 14, 22:30 LOW POC Monitor

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. A proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly released via GitHub and Google Drive, and the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure - no patch is confirmed available at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in Zoom Workplace mobile clients (Android before 7.0.4, iOS before 7.0.3) stems from improper authorization in the handler for a custom URL scheme, allowing a remote attacker to elevate privileges over network access. The CVSS 8.1 rating reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact with low-complexity exploitation, though no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not on the CISA KEV list.

Privilege escalation in the Zoom Workplace mobile app (Android before 7.0.4, iOS before 7.0.3) stems from improper authorization in the handler that processes the app's custom URL scheme, allowing an unauthenticated actor to elevate privileges via network access. Zoom self-reported and patched the flaw, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS remains very low (0.04%, 12th percentile) and CISA SSVC marks exploitation as none, indicating no observed activity despite the 9.8 CVSS score.

Improper authorization in the WebView URL Handler of the Groww Stock, Mutual Fund, Gold App for Android (all versions up to build 20260805) allows a low-privileged attacker with physical device access to invoke custom URL scheme handlers without proper authorization, enabling unauthorized in-app navigation or bypass of client-side access controls. The CVSS 4.0 score of 0.3 reflects severe exploitation constraints: physical access is mandatory, attack complexity is high, and impact is limited to low integrity compromise with no confirmed confidentiality exposure. A public proof-of-concept is available on GitHub and Google Drive; the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV and no vendor patch has been confirmed at time of analysis.
