CVE-2014-7445
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 LEGEND OF TRANCE (aka com.legendoftrance) application 1.0 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 LEGEND OF TRANCE Android app v1.0 fails to validate X.509 certificates during SSL/TLS connections, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept traffic by presenting fraudulent certificates and capture sensitive data transmitted to servers.

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.
-
Identify if the app is installedCheck the Android device for the application named 'LEGEND OF TRANCE' by Jowangel. This can be done via device settings under Apps or by listing installed packages using adb: `adb shell pm list packages | grep -i trance`Affected if The app is installed on the device
-
Determine the installed versionCheck the version of LEGEND OF TRANCE. Using adb: `adb shell dumpsys package com.jowangel.legendoftrance` (package name is inferred from developer 'Jowangel' and app name). Alternatively, check in device settings under Apps > LEGEND OF TRANCE > VersionAffected if The version is exactly 1.0
-
Verify SSL/TLS certificate handlingInspect the app's network traffic using a proxy like Burp Suite or OWASP ZAP to perform a man-in-the-middle test. Attempt to present an untrusted or self-signed certificate to the app and observe if the connection succeeds or failsAffected if The app accepts fraudulent certificates and establishes a connection without warning or error, indicating certificate validation is disabled or broken
The environment is affected if the LEGEND OF TRANCE app by Jowangel version 1.0 is installed and the app accepts untrusted SSL certificates during connections.

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 certificate validation using Android's built-in TrustManager or configure the Network Security Config to validate server certificates; avoid disabling SSL validation in network requests.
