Finding evidence
Open a category to review its occurrences. Printing includes all categories and occurrences.
Private key material · high · 2 occurrences
Never ship private-key material in a client. Revoke/rotate the compromised key and hold it server-side or in a hardware-backed store.
CWE-321 · MASVS-CRYPTO-2
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- (redacted)-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- (redacted)
Application data is backup-enabled · info · 1 occurrence
Backup is on by default on Android; this manifest states it explicitly. If the app stores sensitive local data, define dataExtractionRules/fullBackupContent to exclude it, or set android:allowBackup=false.
CWE-530 · CWE-312 · MASVS-STORAGE-1 · MASVS-STORAGE-2
android:allowBackup="true"
Firebase Realtime Database reference · low · 1 occurrence
Confirm the bucket/database denies anonymous read (enable auth / storage rules / RLS), then audit its contents for data already exposed while it was open.

Google API key (client-shipped; restriction unverified) · low · 14 occurrences
Restrict the API key (application + API restrictions in Google Cloud Console); a client-shipped key is public, so restriction is the control.
