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 Easy Tips For Glowing Skin (aka com.n.easytipsforglowingskin) 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 confidence

The Android application 'Easy Tips For Glowing Skin' version 1.0 fails to validate X.509 certificates from SSL/TLS servers, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept and modify encrypted communications by presenting forged certificates.

MitigationImplement proper SSL certificate validation including chain-of-trust verification and hostname validation; consider certificate pinning for critical endpoints.

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. Confirm the vulnerable app is installed
    Check if the app 'Easy Tips For Glowing Skin' is present on the Android device by navigating to Settings > Apps or running: adb shell pm list packages | grep -i 'easy.*skin'
    Affected if The package name containing 'easy tips for glowing skin' appears in the list
  2. Verify the installed version
    Open Play Store app page for Easy Tips For Glowing Skin, or use ADB: adb shell dumpsys package <package_name> | grep versionName
    Affected if The version reported is exactly 1.0
  3. Determine if the app uses network communication
    Review app permissions for INTERNET access in Settings > Apps > Permissions, or use ADB: adb shell dumpsys package <package_name> | grep -i permission
    Affected if The INTERNET permission is granted and the app transmits data over the network

If the app version is 1.0 and it transmits data over the network without proper SSL/TLS validation implemented in its code, the device is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks on its communications.
