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 confidenceThe PayRange Android app versions 7.0.7 and below fails to properly validate SSL certificates in WebView components, allowing invalid or malicious certificates to be accepted. This enables man-in-the-middle attacks where an attacker can intercept and steal sensitive user data transmitted through the application's webviews.

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.
-
Verify PayRange Android app is installedOn the Android device, go to Settings > Apps > Apps, or run 'adb shell pm list packages | grep payrange' to list installed packages containing 'payrange'.Affected if The PayRange app appears in the installed applications list.
-
Retrieve the installed PayRange versionOpen Google Play Store app, search for PayRange, tap on the app, and view the version under 'App info'. Alternatively, use ADB: 'adb shell dumpsys package com.payrange.mobicent | grep versionName' (replace com.payrange.mobicent with the actual package name if different).Affected if Unable to retrieve a version number indicates the app is installed but version data is unavailable.
-
Compare installed version to 7.0.7Compare the retrieved version number to 7.0.7. For example, if the installed version is 7.0.5, 7.0.7, or any version number lower than or equal to 7.0.7, the device is running a vulnerable version.Affected if The installed version is 7.0.7 or any version lower than 7.0.7.
-
Confirm WebView usage for sensitive transactionsReview the PayRange app behavior during use. If the app loads web-based payment pages, login forms, or other sensitive content within in-app WebView components (visible as embedded browser windows), the SSL validation flaw can be exploited.Affected if The app loads sensitive web content through WebView components.
A defender is affected if the PayRange Android app version 7.0.7 or lower is installed and the app uses WebView to handle sensitive user data.

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 · scopedUpdate the PayRange Android application to a version above 7.0.7 that includes proper SSL certificate validation, or implement WebServerClient certificate pinning for all webview connections.
Contact PayRange for the patched version (version higher than 7.0.7)
- Contact PayRange support to verify the availability of a patched version beyond 7.0.7
- Upgrade the PayRange Android app to the latest version available from the official Google Play Store or PayRange
- Verify the update addresses SSL certificate validation in webviews
- If no update is available, consider using the application only on trusted networks and avoid transmitting sensitive information
