Enhancing Mobile App Security: Implementing Proper Error Handling Mechanisms to Prevent Information Leakage
Naga Satya Praveen Kumar Yadati [8]
Abstract: Handling exceptions in mobile apps is crucial for ensuring robustness and user satisfaction. However, managing exceptions effectively is challenging due to the fast-evolving nature of API frameworks and insufficient documentation. We introduce ExAssist, a code recommendation tool designed to predict potential exceptions and suggest appropriate exception handling and recovery actions in Android applications. ExAssist leverages large datasets of existing mobile applications to learn and recommend accurate exception handling patterns. Our evaluation demonstrates that ExAssist offers high precision in identifying exception types and recommending recovery actions, significantly improving the quality of exception handling in mobile apps.
