| Title | Airtel (Bharti Airtel Limited) Airtel Thanks App 4.105.4 Insecure Local Storage (OWASP Mobile Top 10: M2, M5) |
|---|
| Description | The Airtel Android app stores sensitive user data such as payment history, personally identifiable information (PII), and authentication-related tokens in unencrypted local storage. These files are accessible in plaintext format at `/Android/data/com.myairtelapp/files/`, violating OWASP Mobile Top 10 standards. This makes the data easily extractable via physical access, ADB, or malicious apps with basic storage permissions.
The issue exposes:
- Payment transaction logs
- Linked mobile numbers
- User personal info
- Login or auth-related metadata
Impact: A malicious actor with device access or minimal permissions can extract and misuse sensitive Airtel user data.
