The mobile application binary lacks protections against reverse engineering, code tampering, or debugging, making it easier for attackers to analyze and modify the application.
An attacker could reverse-engineer the application to discover API keys, encryption keys, or business logic. Tampered versions could be distributed with malicious modifications.
Implement code obfuscation. Use anti-tampering mechanisms and root/jailbreak detection. Implement runtime integrity checks. Consider using commercial app shielding solutions. Strip debug symbols from release builds.
