摘要: Hybrid mobile application development is increasingly being adopted by the community since it provides answer to challenge of having right mix accessibility native features at an affordable cost. Apache Cordova library example a middle-ware that enables developers different operating systems access through web frameworks, such as HTML and JavaScript, which same time introduces several security challenges. In this paper, we highlight current setting limitations hybrid frameworks propose policy based approach provide limited pages/states app mitigate effect possible attacks. addition, downloaded analyzed 622 real apps, presented settings statistics.
