CVE-2015-7785

Vulnerability

The GANMA! App for iOS provided by COMICSMART INC. fails to verify SSL server certificates. This vulnerability affects GANMA! App for iOS version 2.0.9 and earlier. The application does not properly validate the authenticity of SSL/TLS certificates presented by servers during encrypted communication sessions. [1][2]

Exploitation

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must be in a position to perform a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, such as on an insecure Wi-Fi network or via compromised network infrastructure. The attack complexity is considered high (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N). The attacker can intercept the network traffic between the app and its backend servers. No user interaction or authentication is required for the attacker to execute the MITM attack. [1][2]

Impact

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to eavesdrop on encrypted communication between the app and its servers. This compromises the confidentiality of the data transmitted, potentially exposing sensitive user information. Additionally, the integrity of the communication may be compromised, as the attacker could modify data in transit. [1][2]

Mitigation

Users should update the GANMA! App for iOS to the latest version according to the information provided by the developer. No other workarounds are documented in the available references. [1][2]
