AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a path traversal flaw within the com.airasia.core.utils.RealPathUtil.getRealPath method of the AirAsia MOVE App. By manipulating the argument _display_name, an attacker who can localize the app on an Android device can cause the application to resolve and access arbitrary file system paths. This could expose local files that should otherwise be protected, potentially leaking sensitive data, but the description does not mention execution of code or elevation of privileges.

Affected Systems

All installations of AirAsia MOVE App up to and including version 12.47.1 running on Android are affected. The flaw resides in the com.airasia.mobile component and is triggered by constructing specific path arguments in the RealPathUtil.getRealPath function.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.8 indicates moderate risk. EPSS data is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers need local access to the device, and while an exploit is publicly available, the lack of remote execution or high impact limits immediate threat; however, local attackers can still retrieve arbitrary files without user interaction.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the MOVE App to a version that includes the fix once released by AirAsia
  • Disable or restrict the app’s file selection or path-accepting interfaces to prevent arbitrary path input
  • Keep abreast of official AirAsia security advisories and apply any subsequent patches promptly
