iSharing app vulnerabilities put users’ locations at risk

TechCrunch reports that popular phone tracking app iSharing had the exact location details of its more than 35 million users exposed due to vulnerabilities that prevented the app’s servers from conducting proper checks of user data access. Aside from location data, users’ names, profile photos, email addresses, and phone numbers were also made accessible to anyone due to the flaws, according to University of British Columbia’s Eric Daigle, who discovered and reported the security issues.
