Summary

CVE-2024-13917 is a high-severity Improper Export of Android Application Components (CWE-926) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 8.3 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Inter-Process Communication (T1559); ranked at the 8th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-6 (Least Privilege) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

An application "com.pri.applock", which is pre-loaded on Kruger&Matz smartphones, allows a user to encrypt any application using user-provided PIN code or by using biometric data. Exposed ”com.pri.applock.LockUI“ activity allows any other malicious application, with no granted Android system permissions, to…

inject an arbitrary intent with system-level privileges to a protected application. One must know the protecting PIN number (it might be revealed by exploiting CVE-2024-13916) or ask the user to provide it. Only version (version name: 13, version code: 33) was tested and confirmed to have this vulnerability. Application update was released in April 2025.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-3 Access Enforcement good match

AC-3 directly requires enforcement of authorizations on logical access, which stops an exported Android component from being reachable without proper restrictions.

AC-6 Least Privilege good match

Least privilege reduces the exposure of exported components by limiting unnecessary authorizations granted to other apps.

Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

Defining and enforcing least-privilege access permissions directly prevents unauthorized export of Android components.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices include configuring component exports and permission checks to avoid this weakness.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

A.8.28 Secure coding mostly match
prevents

Secure-coding standards require explicit permission declarations and intent-filter restrictions to avoid improper exports.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can detect exported components lacking proper restrictions, providing partial coverage of the weakness.

A.8.3 Information access restriction mostly match
prevents

Enforcing information-access restrictions on exported Android components directly prevents unauthorized launch or data access.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Defining application security requirements includes specifying proper export restrictions and permission checks for components.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles discourage overly permissive component exports, though the control is broader than this single weakness.
