Added HTTPDNS to ETIP |
added some comments to ETIP and new category (DNS Spy) |
@blaueente Do we want to add a second ETIP entry for |
Is there an overall established policy? Without really knowing what that class does, I'd suspect it is different from DNS and therefore might warrant a seperate entry with a different category. About the category DNS spy: I think they can use it just for the app's DNS requests, so spying is mostly an additional problem if the app handles other domain names (like in a browser, or in a chat app that processes user's links); if they request only their own services's names which they access anyway later on, they do not get that much additional data. |
While analyzing an app I found that the class
com.alibaba.sdk.android.utils.AMSDevReporter
contains the url:
http://adash.man.aliyuncs.com:80/man/ap
and the class (the "d" is probably obfuscated)
com.alibaba.sdk.android.httpdns.d
contains the following domain name and IPs:
The 1st class ist probably some dev/crash-reporter thing, the 2nd class is most likely a DNS-over-http implementation.
Both means they could potentially submit at least some unwanted data to alibaba.
