CVE-2022-0131

External-service API key disclosure via embedded credential

Published Jan 17, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Hard-coded credentials in Jimoty App for Android before 3.7.42 allow local users to extract an external-service API key. The application embeds the key in data shipped with the app, so static analysis can recover the credential. Access to an affected application package is sufficient; the key exposed only the external integration, was deactivated, and did not directly affect app users.
