Cryptographic APIs misuses #27

Open misterAnderson90 opened 2 years ago

misterAnderson90 commented 2 years ago

I'm a PhD student interested in finding security vulnerabilities in open source projects.

We found a total of 10 warnings (indicating potential vulnerabilities) when running the CogniCrypt static analyzer (*) on meteroid (or its library dependencies). We documented each one of these issues in private gists for the sake of confidentiality (non-disclosure).

Can you please let us know whether we can share these gists with you? We are eager to evaluate the perception of developers (e.g. severity of these warnings) and improve meteroid's security, and the quality of the reports of static analysis tools. (*) https://github.com/CROSSINGTUD/CryptoAnalysis

I'm not entirely sure how meteroid is relevant because we just use an HTTPS client in here, but if you want to send me a report I'd be happy to look at it. (There's a email address in my profile.)

Hi @YtvwlD,

I have shared with you the email with the reports. Most of them are related to third-party libraries such as okhttp3 and okio.
