Cloud credential disclosure via bundled plaintext key
Published Mar 16, 2026 · Updated Mar 16, 2026
Credential exposure in Albert Health 1.7.0 through 1.7.3 for Android allows local users to obtain a Google Cloud service-account key. The application package ships a reusable credential in the plaintext asset resources/assets/service-account.json, exposing it when the APK is extracted. Local access and a high-complexity extraction path are required; the record establishes confidentiality impact but no write or service-interruption impact.
