CVE-2014-7002
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe Sopexa Pavillon France (aka com.goomeoevents.pavillonfrance) application 3.6.5 for Android does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceThe Sopexa Pavillon France Android application version 3.6.5 fails to validate X.509 certificates from SSL servers, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept encrypted communications by presenting a crafted certificate and spoof legitimate servers to obtain sensitive information.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Locate the Sopexa Pavillon France applicationOn the Android device, go to Settings > Apps > Apps Manager (or similar), then search for 'Sopexa Pavillon France' or 'Pavillon France' in the installed applications listAffected if The application is not found on the device, the user is not affected by this specific CVE
-
Determine the installed application versionTap on the Sopexa Pavillon France app in the apps list, then look for 'Version' or 'Version info' in the app details screen. Record the version number shownAffected if The installed version is exactly 3.6.5, the user is affected by this vulnerability
-
Verify if SSL certificate validation is disabled in the appSince the app fails to validate X.509 certificates by design in version 3.6.5, attempt to intercept app traffic using an SSL proxy (such as Burp Suite or OWASP ZAP) with a self-signed certificate. If the app successfully communicates without certificate warnings or failures, SSL validation is not occurringAffected if The app successfully sends and receives data through an SSL proxy with an untrusted certificate, confirming the vulnerability is present and exploitable
The user is affected if the Sopexa Pavillon France Android application version 3.6.5 is installed on their device and communicates without validating SSL/TLS certificates.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement proper SSL/TLS certificate validation in the application, including certificate chain verification and hostname validation, and consider certificate pinning for added security.
