Overview

Analysis recorded

3 finding categories to review

*brute - minimalist launcher (com.brute.launcher) scored grade B, 88 out of 100, in a static scan of version 0.1.12 on 2026-11-13. It has no high or critical findings, and 3 lower-severity finding categories across 3 occurrences. No tracking SDKs were recognised in the package. This is static analysis of a single build: it does not observe the app running and does not establish that any data is exposed.

Interpretation & review guidance

The manifest permits cleartext (HTTP) traffic. Data sent over plain HTTP can be read or tampered with on the network; modern apps should require HTTPS.

mediumcom.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp 3.0.0 — CVE-2021-03411 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The app bundles a third-party library whose declared version matches a public security advisory (CVE). This is flagged from the version the library itself ships and a curated advisory list — confirm exploitability in your context and update the dependency to the fixed version. It is not a proof of live exploitation.

infoApplication data is backup-enabled1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The app allows Android backups (android:allowBackup="true"). App data can then be extracted via adb backup on many devices — a concern if the app stores tokens or personal/health/payment data locally. Common and low-severity, but worth disabling for sensitive apps.

Is this your app?

The findings above are counts. The app's developer can see each one in context, be told when a new build changes the result, and re-check any backend that answers. Verify that you control brute.fyi (the site on this app's Play listing) to open that view. Free; no card.

  • Personal-data permissions/identifiers appear on-device, but no third-party analytics/advertising SDKs were detected that would receive them.

This maps what the app can access (permissions it requests, identifier APIs its code references) to the third parties bundled in it. It reflects capability and SDK presence — not proof that a specific value was transmitted.
