Mashups on traditional desktop devices are a well-known source of security risks. In this paper, we examine how these risks translate to mobile mashups and identify new risks caused by mobile-specific characteristics such as access to device features or offline operation. We describe the design of SCCM, a platform independent approach to handle the various mobile mashup security risks in a consistent and systematic manner. Evaluating an SCCM implementation for Android, we find that SCCM successfully protects against common attacks such as inserting a malicious widget from the outside.

A Middleware for Securing Mobile Mashups was presented at this event.
