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 · unedited
The Suzanne Glathar (aka com.app_sglathar.layout) application 1.399 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 confidence

The Android application 'Suzanne Glathar' (com.app_sglathar.layout) version 1.399 fails to validate X.509 certificates from SSL servers, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept encrypted communications by presenting fraudulent certificates and steal sensitive data.

MitigationReplace the application with a properly patched version that implements correct SSL/TLS certificate validation, or use an alternative application that validates server certificates before establishing encrypted connections.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if the Suzanne Glathar Android app is installed
    Run 'adb shell pm list packages | grep sglathar' or check installed apps in Android settings for package name 'com.app_sglathar.layout'
    Affected if The package com.app_sglathar.layout is found in the installed applications
  2. Determine the installed version of the app
    Run 'adb shell dumpsys package com.app_sglathar.layout' and look for versionName or versionCode in the output
    Affected if The version shown is 1.399 (versionName) or the corresponding versionCode for 1.399
  3. Confirm the vulnerability is present
    This is a code-level flaw where the app does not validate X.509 certificates - no configuration check possible. The vulnerability exists by default in version 1.399
    Affected if The app is installed and running version 1.399, meaning SSL/TLS certificate validation is not properly implemented in the application code

A user is affected if the Android application 'Suzanne Glathar' with package name com.app_sglathar.layout and version 1.399 is installed on their device.
