CVE-2025-1879
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 · uneditedA vulnerability was found in i-Drive i11 and i12 up to 20250227 and classified as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component APK. The manipulation leads to hard-coded credentials. It is possible to launch the attack on the physical device. It was not possible to identify the current maintainer of the product. It must be assumed that the product is end-of-life.
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 · moderate confidenceHard-coded credentials embedded in the i-Drive i11 and i12 Android APK allow unauthorized access when an attacker gains physical access to the device. The credentials are compiled into the application binary and cannot be remotely updated.

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 i-Drive i11 or i12 devices in your environmentConduct a physical or network inventory of devices to locate any i-Drive i11 or i12 Android devices. Check device labels, management interfaces, or network scanning for known MAC addresses or device fingerprints associated with these models.Affected if Any i-Drive I11 or I12 device is present in the environment
-
Check the firmware version on each i-Drive deviceAccess the device settings, about screen, or device management interface to view the current firmware version. The version is typically displayed as a date string such as 20250227 or similar.Affected if The displayed firmware version is 20250227 or earlier (lower date value)
-
Verify the APK file inside the firmwareExtract the APK from the device firmware or access the installed application package directly on the Android device. Inspect the compiled binary for embedded credential strings using tools like strings, binwalk, or APK decompilers.Affected if Hard-coded credentials (usernames, passwords, API keys, or tokens) are found embedded in the APK binary
You are affected if you have i-Drive I11 or I12 devices running firmware version 20250227 or earlier, as these contain the hard-coded credentials in the APK that cannot be remotely patched.

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 dataSince the product is end-of-life with no maintainer, discontinue use if possible. If continued operation is required, implement compensating controls: restrict physical access, network-segment the device, and monitor for unauthorized physical access attempts.
