CVE-2020-6830
Last modified
CVE-2020-6830 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. For native-to-JS bridging, the app requires a unique token to be passed that ensures non-app code can't call the bridging functions. That token was being used for JS-to-native also, but it isn't needed in this case, and its usage was also leaking this token. EPSS estimates a 0.90% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
