GV-Access Mobile App Hard-Coded API Key Exposure

Vulnerability report for CVE-2026-124601, including description, CVSS score, EPSS score, affected products, exploitability, helpful resources, and attack-flow context.

Publication date: 2026-11-10

Last updated on: 2026-11-10

Assigner: GV

Description

An API key is hardcoded and retrievable from the GV-Access package. Since Android applications can be reverse engineered, embedding sensitive API credentials directly in the client application may allow unauthorized users to extract and misuse the key.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves an API key that is hardcoded within the GV-Access package of a software. Since Android applications can be reverse engineered, attackers can extract and misuse this embedded API key, potentially leading to unauthorized access or misuse of the API.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, inspect the GV-Access package for hardcoded API keys. Reverse engineer the Android application using tools like apktool or jadx to extract and search for embedded credentials. Check network traffic for unauthorized API calls using Wireshark or tcpdump.

Impact Analysis

If you use an Android application that includes the GV-Access package, attackers could exploit this vulnerability to extract the hardcoded API key. This may allow unauthorized access to sensitive data or services, potentially leading to data breaches or other security incidents.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability may impact compliance with GDPR and HIPAA by exposing sensitive API keys through reverse engineering, potentially leading to unauthorized access to personal or health data. Hardcoded credentials in mobile applications violate security best practices required by these regulations.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the GV-Access package to the latest version provided by GeoVision. Rotate any exposed API keys and restrict their permissions. Monitor network traffic for suspicious activity and implement application integrity checks to prevent reverse engineering.
