CVE-2026-103097: CWE-798: Use of Hard-coded Credentials in GeoVision Inc. GV-Eye
CVE-2026-103097 is a vulnerability in GeoVision Inc.'s GV-Eye Android application version 3.6.0 where an API key is hardcoded and can be extracted from the application package. This exposure allows unauthorized users to retrieve sensitive credentials due to the ease of reverse engineering Android apps.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability involves the use of hardcoded API credentials embedded directly within the GV-Eye Android application package (version 3.6.0). Because Android applications can be reverse engineered, attackers can extract these credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access or misuse of the API key. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.5, reflecting a high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and high confidentiality impact but no integrity or availability impact.
Potential Impact
An attacker who extracts the hardcoded API key can misuse it to access backend services or APIs intended to be protected, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or service abuse. However, there is no indication of integrity or availability impact. No known exploits are reported in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation is currently available for this vulnerability. Users should monitor vendor advisories for updates. As a best practice, avoid embedding sensitive credentials in client applications. Consider implementing server-side authentication mechanisms or dynamic credential provisioning to mitigate risks.
