OWASP A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
Confidence Level Low
Impact Level Low
Likelihood Level Low

Description

Using DefaultHttpClient is insecure because it is deprecated and does not support modern TLS 1.2 encryption. This means data sent over the network may not be properly protected.

Impact

Attackers could intercept or tamper with sensitive information transmitted by your application, leading to data leaks or man-in-the-middle attacks. This can result in exposure of user credentials or other confidential data.
