Researchers at Checkmarx say they have discovered a pair of vulnerabilities in the Tinder dating applications. The vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to snoop on user activity and manipulate content. Tinder’s use of an insecure HTTP connection and a flaw in Tinder s use of HTTPS can leave users exposed, researchers say. Tinder couldn t immediately be reached for comment for this report. It s unclear whether an attacker has already exploited the vulnerabilities, but doing so could expose Tinder users to blackmail and other threats.
