Check Point researchers say 23 Android apps leaked sensitive data of more than 100 million users. The findings come from an examination of 23 apps available in the official Google Play Store, some of which have downloads ranging from 10,000 to 10 million. The issues stem from misconfiguring real-time databases, push notification, and cloud storage keys, resulting in spillage of emails, phone numbers, chat messages, location, passwords, backups, browser histories, and photos. The researchers said they were able to obtain data belonging to users of Angolan taxi app T’Leva.
