MASTG-DEMO-0060: App Writing Sensitive Data to Sandbox using EncryptedSharedPreferences

Download MASTG-DEMO-0060 APK Open MASTG-DEMO-0060 Folder Build MASTG-DEMO-0060 APK

Sample

The code snippet below shows sample code which stores sensitive data using String and StringSet from EncryptedSharedPreferences.

Warning

The Jetpack security crypto library, including the EncryptedFile and EncryptedSharedPreferences classes, has been deprecated. However, since an official replacement has not yet been released, we recommend using these classes until one is available.

Evaluation

This test passes because sensitive data is stored using EncryptedSharedPreferences, which encrypts both keys and values at rest. Even if an attacker gains access to the app's sandbox, the data remains encrypted.

For example, to confirm this, run the following command:

adb shell cat /data/data/org.owasp.mastestapp/shared_prefs/MasSharedPref_Sensitive_Data.xml

Which returns:

MasSharedPref_Sensitive_Data.xml
1
