CVE-2022-36782 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2022-36782: Pal Electronics Systems - Pal Gate Authorization Errors. The vulnerability is an authorization problem in PalGate device management android client app. Gates of bulidings and parking lots with a simple button in any smartphone. The API was found after a decompiling and static research using Jadx, and a dynamic analasys using Frida. The attacker can iterate over all the IOT devices to see every entry and exit, on every gate and device all over the world, he can also scrape the server and create a user's DB with full names and phone number of over 2.8 million users, and to see all of the users' movement in and out of gates, even in real time.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2022-36782

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2022-36782 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2022-36782

CVE-2022-36782 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2022-36782, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2022-36782, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
