CVE-2026-9222
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 · uneditedSetracker2 Android Companion App com.tgelec.setracker versions 3.1.5 and prior only require the password hash when authenticating with backend services from the client. This could allow an attacker, who knows the hash, to authenticate and gain full access.
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 Setracker2 Android app versions 3.1.5 and prior use an insecure authentication mechanism that accepts only the password hash for backend authentication rather than requiring the plaintext password or a proper token-based session system. An attacker who obtains a user's password hash can replay it to authenticate and gain full access to the user's account and associated services.

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 Setracker2 Android Companion App is installedOn Android devices, check installed applications in Settings > Apps > See all apps, or use 'adb shell pm list packages' to list installed packagesAffected if The Setracker2 or Setracker app package is found on any Android device in the environment
-
Determine the installed app versionIn Android Settings > Apps > [Setracker2], view the App info or Version information; alternatively, use 'adb shell dumpsys package [package_name]' to retrieve version detailsAffected if The reported version is 3.1.5 or any version prior to 3.1.5
-
Compare version against the affected rangeCompare the installed version number to the affected range: versions 3.1.5 and all prior versions (e.g., 3.1.4, 3.1.3, 3.0.x, etc.)Affected if The installed version is 3.1.5 or lower, meaning the app accepts password hash for authentication
-
Inspect authentication behavior (if app is in use)Capture and review network traffic or API requests from the app to backend services, looking for authentication payloads that transmit only a password hash rather than the actual password or session tokenAffected if The app sends password hash alone as the sole authentication credential without requiring additional factors such as MFA or session token rotation
A user is affected if the Setracker2 Android Companion App version 3.1.5 or prior is installed and in use, as the app accepts password hash alone for backend authentication.

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 dataReplace hash-only authentication with proper token-based authentication using secure, time-limited access tokens and refresh tokens, implement multi-factor authentication, and require affected users to reset their passwords.
