Low technical severity with public exploit material referenced by a structured source; prioritise exposed affected systems while verifying vendor guidance.
Published severityLow→Operational priority:Low, unchanged from published severity.unchanged
Evidence used
No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
A structured source references public exploit or proof-of-concept material.
Exploitation requires an existing local or physical foothold with privileges.
EPSS is 0.11% for the current model date.
Compensating controls
Restrict local access and enforce least privilege on affected hosts.
Increase monitoring for the attack path and post-exploitation behaviour described in the report.
Verification
Confirm that the asset runs Groww Stock, Mutual Fund, Gold App and falls inside the recorded affected range.
Recheck the vendor advisory before scheduling a change because no verified fixed version is currently retained.
Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.

01
What, why and how
A vulnerability was identified in Groww Stock, Mutual Fund, Gold App up to 20260805 on Android. This affects an unknown part of the component WebView URL Handler. The manipulation leads to improper authorization in handler for custom url scheme. It is possible to launch the attack on the physical device. The complexity of an attack is rather high. It is indicated that the exploitability is difficult. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure.

It is indicated that the exploitability is difficult. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure.
Why
The product uses a handler for a custom URL scheme, but it does not properly restrict which actors can invoke the handler using the scheme.
How
An attacker operating through physical access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path
CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.
Observed exploitation ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No confirmed evidence
No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.
Public PoC / exploit material ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.Reference recorded
CISA Vulnrichment records proof-of-concept exploitation in its SSVC data. BlackTree has not independently executed or validated exploit material.
Likely attack path
physical access → Improper Authorization in Handler for Custom URL Scheme → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor

Weakness ?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-939: Improper Authorization in Handler for Custom URL Scheme. The product uses a handler for a custom URL scheme, but it does not properly restrict which actors can invoke the handler using the scheme.
CVSS vector ?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System 4.0: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

Post-exploitation / living off the land
No specific living-off-the-land technique is confirmed in the structured sources. Monitor normal administration tools for activity inconsistent with the affected service's baseline.
