Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: High: A successful attack depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. That is, a successful attack cannot be accomplished at will, but requires the attacker to invest in some measurable amount of effort in preparation or execution against the vulnerable component before a successful attack can be expected. For example, a successful attack may require an attacker to: gather knowledge about the environment in which the vulnerable target/component exists; prepare the target environment to improve exploit reliability; or inject themselves into the logical network path between the target and the resource requested by the victim in order to read and/or modify network communications (e.g., a man in the middle attack).
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 16 Jul 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate this vulnerability, European organizations using the tech.palm.id application should: 1) Monitor for updates from TECNO and apply patches promptly once available. 2) Restrict network access to the application backend, employing network segmentation and firewall rules to limit exposure to trusted users and devices only. 3) Implement additional authentication layers or multi-factor authentication (MFA) where possible to compensate for the app's weak authentication. 4) Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on authentication mechanisms within the app environment. 5) Educate users about the risks of unauthorized access and encourage vigilance for suspicious activity. 6) Log and monitor authentication attempts and access patterns to detect potential exploitation attempts early. 7) If feasible, consider alternative applications with stronger authentication controls until a fix is available.

Description

Authentication vulnerability in the mobile application（tech.palm.id）may lead to the risk of information leakage.

Impact

For European organizations, the impact of this vulnerability depends largely on the adoption and use of the TECNO tech.palm.id application within their operations or user base. If used internally or by customers, the improper authentication could lead to unauthorized information disclosure, which may include personal data or sensitive business information. This could result in privacy violations under GDPR, reputational damage, and potential regulatory fines. However, given the low CVSS score and the high attack complexity, the immediate risk is limited. The vulnerability does not affect data integrity or availability, reducing the risk of service disruption or data manipulation. Nonetheless, organizations should consider this vulnerability in their risk assessments, especially if the app handles sensitive or regulated data. Attackers with network access and some privileges could exploit this flaw to gather information that might facilitate further attacks or social engineering campaigns.
