Impact

A flaw in Moovit Bus & Public Transit App version 1.18 on Android allows a local attacker to manipulate requests that target the app’s custom URL scheme. The misuse of the com.tranzmate component bypasses the intended authorization checks, enabling an attacker to invoke privileged functionality or send commands that the application should reject.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Moovit Bus & Public Transit App, specifically version 1.18 on Android, where the defect resides in an unspecified part of the com.tranzmate component.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.8 classifies this as a moderate severity vulnerability. The EPSS score is not available, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, indicating that no large‑scale exploitation has been reported. Nevertheless, a published exploit exists, and because the attack can only be carried out locally, the risk is constrained to scenarios where a malicious user has code running on the victim’s device or can trigger the custom URL scheme through a malicious app.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply any vendor‑released patch that addresses the improper authorization flaw in the com.tranzmate custom URL scheme (CWE‑285).
  • If a patch is not yet available, disable the app’s handling of the custom URL scheme or block com.tranzmate intents in Android to prevent unauthorized invocation (CWE‑285).
  • Limit exposure by ensuring only trusted code can trigger the custom URL scheme, for example by configuring Android app‑intent filters or using a firewall to block untrusted intents, thereby mitigating the potential misuse of the custom URL scheme path (CWE‑939).
