MiniTaintDev: Unveiling Mini-App Vulnerabilities through Dynamic Taint Analysis

Jianjia Yu, Zifeng Kang, Yinzhi Cao · 2023

The security and privacy issues of mini-apps, which are lightweight apps that run inside host apps such as WeChat, have drawn the interest of researchers recently. We propose MiniTaintDev, a dynamic taint analysis tool for mini-app vulnerability detection, focusing on the detection of data leakage and sensitive API execution. We show MiniTaintDev with proof-of-concept attacks and some preliminary results in the work-in-progress (WIP) paper.
