I was just analyzing the Whatsapp application for Android, used for instant messaging. To my surprise, i found out that, the database file where it stores its IM conversations log, is having the read permission for everyone.
Does that mean that i could create a malicious application and extract the msgstore.db file from it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
