| Title | SA LA NACION LA NACION(app.lanacion.activity) 10.2.25 WebSocket Credential Leak |
|---|
| Description | The Android application app.lanacion.activity version 10.2.25 contains a hardcoded WebSocket API key in source/app/lanacion/clublanacion/BuildConfig.java. An attacker can extract this key via reverse engineering and use it to authenticate to the WebSocket endpoint. This allows the attacker to establish numerous concurrent connections from multiple sources, potentially launching a distributed denial‑of‑service (DDoS) attack that exhausts server resources. |
