Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Social Networking (aka com.wSocialNetworkingSites) application version 0.33.13320.99980

Description The issue allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate because the application does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers.

Recommendations For version 0.33.13320.99980, consider implementing certificate pinning or verifying X.509 certificates from SSL servers to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of sensitive information transmission over SSL until a proper fix is applied.
