这款应用由俄罗斯圣彼得堡的无线实验室(Wireless Lab)开发,周三在苹果和安卓应用商店的免费应用中都名列前茅。一条被大量转发但之后被删的推文称,这款应用上传的数据比用户意识到的要多得多。“你的所有老照片都在俄罗斯人手上,”《纽约邮报》(New York Post)的资讯标题宣称。
On Wednesday afternoon, the Democratic National Committee even sent out an alert, urging staff members on presidential campaigns to delete the app immediately, citing its ties to Russia.
周三下午,民主党全国委员会(Democratic National Committee)甚至发出警告,敦促总统竞选团队的工作人员立即删除这款应用,理由是它与俄罗斯有关。
But at least some of those concerns are overblown, according to several security researchers.
但据几名安全研究人员说,至少其中一些担忧被夸大了。
"The info sent by the application was only my device model, my device ID and Android version, which is very limited information and is quite common for an application," said Baptiste Robert, a French security researcher who specializes in smartphone apps that abuse user data.
“这款应用程序发送的信息只是我的设备型号、我的设备ID和安卓系统版本,这些信息非常有限,对于应用程序来说很常见,”研究智能手机应用的用户数据滥用问题的法国安全研究员巴蒂斯特·罗伯(Baptiste Robert)说。
