PhonePe App SQLite Database databases cleartext storage in file

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

A vulnerability was identified in PhonePe App 25.03.21.0 on Android. This affects an unknown function of the file /data/data/com.phonepe.app/databases/ of the component SQLite Database. The manipulation leads to cleartext storage in a file or on disk. The attack needs to be performed locally. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The actual existence of this vulnerability is currently in question. The root-requirement of the attack is reflected by the CVSS vector attribute PR:H. The vendor explains: "[A]s per the PoC this vulnerability needs a rooted device to exploit. PhonePe does not consider vulnerabilities found in rooted device as valid because there is not real-world exploit scenario."
