News about the SHAREit app vulnerabilities follows an earlier report about another popular Android app called Barcode Scanner. The vulnerabilities were first reported to the app developer three months ago, according to the report, but have still not been patched. Trend Micro said the vulnerabilities could allow the leak of sensitive user data and the exploitation of permissions in the app to gain full device access for remote attackers. The app, which has been downloaded more than a billion times on Google Play, bills itself as the fastest cross-platform file-sharing app in the world. A r eport released this week by IT security company Trend Micro announced the discovery of several critical security vulnerabilities in a mobile app for Android devices called SHAREit.
