Overview
PayRange is a mobile payment app that allows users to pay for vending machines, laundromats, and other unattended machines using a smartphone with Bluetooth. Two vulnerabilities were discovered in version 7.0.7 of the PayRange app that is available in the Google Play store.
Description
A vulnerability (CVE-2026-13462) exists in the PayRange Android app that causes invalid SSL certificates to be accepted in application WebViews. A second vulnerability (CVE-2026-13461) exists that allows the injection of JavaScript, which can be used to escape the WebView sandbox and perform a number of dangerous actions on the user’s device. These vulnerabilities were discovered in version 7.0.7 of the PayRange app.
The PayRange app bypasses Android’s SSL trust chain and accepts certificates that match any of the following rules (including self-signed certificates):

Common Name ends with “payrange.com”
Common Name contains “stripe.com”
Common Name contains “fetlifestatus.com” AND any of these conditions are true:
Issuer Common Name is “R10”
Issuer Common Name is “R3”
Issuer Common Name contains “Network Solutions”

The attack vector is an on-path interception. If an attacker can direct traffic intended for a legitimate server to a device they control, they can negotiate a TLS connection with the user’s device using any trusted certificate that matches the rule set. They are then able to inject content into the WebView and harvest credentials, issue malicious requests and read data entered by the user, including exchanges with the PayRange and Stripe servers.
Impact
An attacker may be able to intercept any information they can convince the user to send through the app. If the user is a machine operator, the injected JavaScript code can also connect to PayRange hardware and issue commands with the full permissions of the operator.
Solution
Unfortunately, we were unable to reach the vendor to coordinate this vulnerability. Apply the latest software updates provided by your hardware or software vendor as they become available.

Overview
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xerte Online Toolkits, an open-source e-learning authoring toolsuite intended for the creation of learning materials within a web browser. CVE-2026-14261 tracks the persistence of the /setup/ directory after installation, which allows an unauthenticated attacker to reconfigure the application to point to a remote database they control in order to gain administrative access. CVE-2026-12116 tracks an editable antivirus binary path that can be redirected to a PHP interpreter, causing uploaded files to be executed as PHP code and resulting in remote code execution (RCE). Version v3.15.5 or v3.14.6 of Xerte Online Toolkits fixes these vulnerabilities.
Description
Xerte Online Toolkits is a suite of a free, open-source e-learning authoring tools that allows users to make educational materials directly in-browser. The toolset is installed from multiple packages, and creates a setup folder that persists after installation.
CVE-2026-14261
A vulnerability in Xerte Online Toolkits allows for authentication bypass and remote code execution via reinstallation through the /setup/ folder, enabling attackers to reinstall the service to a remote database they control.
CVE-2026-12116
A vulnerability in Xerte Online Toolkits allows for RCE through the antivirus binary path in the tools server settings. The antivirus binary runs on all uploaded files, but the path to the binary can be modified using the configuration menu. An attacker can achieve remote code execution by redirecting the path to a PHP interpreter, causing any uploaded PHP scripts to be executed.
During installation, Xerte creates a /setup/ folder to configure database connection settings. This folder persists post-installation without access controls or automatic cleanup, and /setup/index.php does not verify whether installation has completed. An attacker can revisit /setup/ and reconfigure the application to point to a remote database, thereby gaining administrative access.
After gaining admin privileges, an attacker can abuse CVE-2026-12116 by editing the antivirus binary path to point to a PHP interpreter. This causes any new uploaded files to be passed to the PHP runtime through website_code/php/import/fileupload.php, bypassing file extension checks and resulting in remote code execution.
Impact
Successful exploitation can allow full remote code execution on the affected server. This enables attackers to establish persistent access, exfiltrate data, or launch supply chain attacks by injecting malicious content into educational materials distributed by the platform.
Solution
These issues have been addressed in two commits:
– 8fec660 removes /setup/ automatically after installation/upgrade and blocks reuse.
– 8ef2062 moves sensitive configuration files, including the antivirus binary path, to server-side locations.
Users should take the following steps immediately:
1. Manually remove the initial installation /setup/ folder from installations.
2. Upgrade to Xerte v3.15.5 or v3.14.6 and run upgrade.php, which enforces automatic /setup/ removal and includes security hardening. If removal fails, the updated code still prevents exploitation.

Overview
Adalo’s no‑code application platform exposes complete user records through its database API for all applications built on both V1 and V2. Due to a platform-level flaw, authenticated users can retrieve full user data belonging to any Adalo application, regardless of configuration. This issue affects more than one million applications and placing developers and their end users at risk of data exposure that they cannot prevent or remediate.
Description
Adalo is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider for building no-code applications. In theory, each application or tenant (customer) is logically isolated with separate databases, users, and configurations.
CVE-2026-10706 Unrestricted Disclosure of Full User Records
The Adalo database API contains a flaw which allows the backend to return complete user records for every list component request, regardless of which fields the component is configured to display. The database does not enforce ownership‑aware, server‑side authorization checks, allowing authenticated users of any Adalo application to query database and table identifiers belonging to other applications and retrieve full records, including fields not requested. This issue is amplified by the permissive CORS policy, plaintext storage of all text files and evidence suggests that deleted records may remain accessible.
CVE-2026-10708 Exposure and Reuse of Long-Lived JWT Tokens
The JWT tokens are visible in client‑side requests and remain valid for approximately twenty days. Once copied, they can be reused from any external website or script to query the database API directly. Because the platform allows requests from any origin, attackers can repeatedly query the API and extract large volumes of user data without interacting with the application itself. The combination of exposed tokens, permissive CORS behavior, and large response limits enables persistent, automated harvesting of entire user databases using only a single token obtained from any visitor session.
Impact
These vulnerabilities affect all Adalo applications across both V1 and V2. Because they occur at the platform level, the entire population of Adalo‑built applications is impacted.
Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized attacker (CVE-2026-10706) Attackers may extract full user records and correlate user behavior across multiple applications via dbId enumeration. The platform does not implement data minimization, privacy by design, or implement appropriate technical safeguards, allowing sensitive information to be exposed to unauthorized parties.
Insufficiently Protected Credentials (CVE-2026-10708) This vulnerability enables large‑scale data harvesting without requiring app‑specific secrets. A single request to a minimal leaderboard component may return user records containing emails, UUIDs, and custom fields. The combination of wildcard CORS behavior, long‑lived twenty‑day JWTs, and the absence of token revocation allows attackers to gather sensitive personal information from any Adalo application.
Solution
Adalo contains an access control weakness that may allow unauthorized users to bypass application boundaries under certain conditions. Adalo has acknowledged the issue, however, no patch is currently available. Customers and tenants should assume data in Adalo collections may be exposed, and avoid storing sensitive information there until a patch is deployed. Users should remain aware of increased phishing and identity theft risks and monitor their accounts for suspicious activity.
