Abstract
Mobile devices and applications are very popular worldwide. Android and iOS dominate the
mobile operating systems market. Most of the mobile applications connect to external servers
that process and store users’ data. These systems are exposed to malicious attacks and the
developers should be always concerned about the applications and data security. This paper
presents known threats and vulnerabilities related to mobile applications and proposes a software solution for vulnerabilities analyses (CrawVulns) that aims to help eliminate or mitigate
security risks.
