CVE-2024-0390
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 · uneditedINPRAX "iZZi connect" application on Android contains hard-coded MQTT queue credentials. The same MQTT queue is used by corresponding physical recuperation devices. Exploiting this vulnerability could potentially allow unauthorized access to manage and read parameters of the recuperation unit "reQnet iZZi".This issue affects "iZZi connect" application versions before 2024010401.
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 iZZi connect Android application contains hard-coded MQTT queue credentials embedded in the app binary. These same credentials are used by physical reQnet iZZi recuperation devices to communicate with a shared MQTT message broker. An attacker who extracts these credentials from the application can connect to the MQTT queue and potentially send management commands or read sensitive parameters from connected physical recuperation devices.

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 installed iZZi Connect appOn Android devices, open Settings > Apps > iZZi connect, or use ADB command: 'adb shell pm list packages | grep izzi' to find the package. Check if the app is present on any managed Android devices.Affected if The iZZi Connect app by Inprax is installed on any device in the environment.
-
Determine installed app versionIn Android Settings > Apps > iZZi connect > App info, note the version number shown (which may display as a date code like 2023121501). Alternatively, use ADB: 'adb shell dumpsys package com.inprax.izzi | grep versionName'.Affected if A version is found that is earlier than 2024010401.
-
Compare against affected version rangeCompare the installed version code to the affected range: versions prior to 2024010401 are vulnerable. The vulnerable versions contain hard-coded MQTT credentials embedded in the app binary.Affected if The installed version code is less than 2024010401.
-
Identify exposure to MQTT brokerIf the vulnerable app version is present, determine whether the associated physical iZZi recuperation devices are in use on the network, as these devices communicate with the same MQTT broker using the shared credentials.Affected if Physical iZZi recuperation devices are connected to a network-accessible MQTT broker.
If the iZZi Connect Android app version below 2024010401 is installed on any device, the hard-coded MQTT credentials are present in that environment and could be extracted by an attacker to access connected recuperation devices.

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.
dbcve · scoped2024010401
Update the iZZi connect application to version 2024010401 or later, which should remove the hard-coded credentials. Organizations should also rotate the exposed MQTT credentials on the broker side and verify that no unauthorized access has occurred.
2024010401
- Check the current version of the Izzi Connect application on your Android device (Settings > Apps > Izzi Connect)
- Update the Izzi Connect application to version 2024010401 or later through the Google Play Store or the vendor's official distribution channel
- After updating, verify the installation was successful by confirming the new version number in the app settings
- As a security best practice following a credentials exposure, consider contacting the device vendor to rotation of the exposed MQTT credentials to ensure the physical recuperation devices use unique, non-compromised credentials
