Permanent Disclosure Ledger

The discipline, demonstrated

We decompile publicly distributed Android and iOS apps and trace their data flows to real endpoints in real countries. We document what we observe, distinguish verified findings from interpretation, and preserve the evidence behind every conclusion. No company can buy a better result — every organisation is held to the same standard, whether it pays us or not. This permanent disclosure ledger puts that principle into practice.

This is what a Security engagement produces. See what you’d receive →

RESOLVED
CRITICAL
IKEA hardcodes the access keys for its in-store positioning system directly inside every copy of the app, exposing the floor plans and tracking infrastructure used to locate shoppers inside its stores. The app also starts behavioural experiments the moment your phone reboots, before you have even opened it, secretly detects when you screenshot the shopping app, and tracks your movement through the physical store using Bluetooth and wifi signals.

C1: IndoorAtlas API Key 110b46e2-d68c-4751-a9ad-3b0bfb5e0589 + API Secret (512-bit, base64) both hardcoded in AndroidManifest.xml - exposes IKEA in-store positioning infrastructure (floor plans, magnetic field maps, positioning sessions) in every installed APK. C2: Firebase API key + Production Realtime Database URL ikea-mobile-app-release2.firebaseio.com hardcoded.

this is a useless cookie banner. it's just here to look like one * we don't use cookies, so there's nothing to consent to. don't let anyone tell you otherwise.two buttons, one closes this and throws some confetti. the other literally does nothing.
