Initial Description or Hints¶
The app does not target the latest platform version (e.g., via targetSdkVersion on Android or by using an older Xcode/toolchain), and as a result, misses out on the most recent platform-enforced security protections (e.g., scoped storage, permission auto-reset, modern TLS handling) (CWE-693 and CWE-1357).
Relevant Topics¶
- targetSDK on Android
- XCode version on iOS
