Overview

Analysis recorded

3 finding categories to review

Paramount+ (com.cbs.app) scored grade A, 92 out of 100, in a static scan of version 17.1.1 on 2026-10-12. It has no high or critical findings, and 3 lower-severity finding categories across 3 occurrences. 8 tracking SDKs are present in the package, which describes what ships, not what runs or what it sends. This is static analysis of a single build: it does not observe the app running and does not establish that any data is exposed.

Start with these findings

mediumShort signing key (RSA 1024-bit)1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The signing key is shorter than the modern 2048-bit RSA minimum. Short keys are cryptographically weaker; a release should re-key to at least RSA-2048 (or an EC key).

Evidence
1 recorded occurrence in the analyzed APK. These are distinct stored findings, not a count of every source match.

lowFirebase Realtime Database reference1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

A Firebase Realtime Database URL. Nearly every app that uses Firebase ships one. It's only an exposure if the database rules are world-readable — that's what live verification checks.

lowGoogle API key (client-shipped; restriction unverified)1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

Android apps are designed to ship Google API keys in the client; Google restricts them by app signing certificate + enabled API. This is only a problem if the key is left unrestricted — presence alone is expected, not an exposure.

  • Approximate location requested while 2 ad/attribution SDK(s) are present (Google AdMob, Kochava) — location commonly feeds ad targeting.
  • Persistent-identifier APIs referenced in code (Advertising ID (AAID), Android ID, Device ID / IMEI) with 6 analytics/ad SDK(s) present — the mechanism used for cross-app profiling.

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.
