3Fun is a location-based mobile dating app that is available on iOS and Android. The application is currently available in the United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, Netherlands, and several other countries. It has more than two million total downloads. Pen Test Partners found that 3Fun stores its users’ location data within the application itself. However, there are ways to prevent your location from being revealed, including hiding certain aspects of your profile, signing up for a VIP membership, and spoofing your location.
Pen Test Partners found that 3Fun is storing its users location data in the app itself
3Fun, a dating app that claims to have 1.5 million users, is exposed to a huge security flaw. The app leaks sensitive data about its users, including their locations in near real time. It also reveals users’ birthdates, photos, and chat history. Pen Test Partners has found that the app contains a vulnerability that can allow snoopers to track the locations of 3fun users in real time and blackmail them.
Users can hide certain aspects of their profile
There are several ways to hide certain aspects of your profile on 3Fun, including private and verified photos. 3Fun uses an artificial intelligence (AI) program to prevent catfishing, as well as the use of fake photos created by Snapchat filters or other software. By hiding certain aspects of your profile, you can be more private and increase the number of potential matches you can find.
Users can hide their pictures
3fun users can hide their pictures to avoid exposure on the site. This new feature is available in the App Store. However, the app can be misused by malicious users, who could expose private details. When contacted, 3fun responded ‘concerningly’ and promised to fix the problem as soon as possible. The company also asked for user feedback so that they could improve the security of the app.https://www.youtube.com/embed/RZMVJnv0RgI
