Russlands „Super-App“ Max: Überwachung vorbei am Smartphone-OS

In their analysis, the authors demonstrate that the fundamental problem lies in the architecture of mobile operating systems like Android. Google’s software, by default, executes each app in an isolated environment with its user ID. However, with a super-app, this protection model completely breaks down. The operating system considers the super-app and all mini-applications launched within it as a single trusted entity. When a user grants permissions to a mini-app or makes confidential entries, this information does not flow directly to the operating system but passes through the super-app’s runtime environment.
Scary and entertaining that what Google has done to the Desktop OS with Chrome is the same thing VK has done to Android with Max.
