Could be. Somewhere else in these comments someone was saying they found evidence that the app was coded that way.

But they also said it was a project by two students. And I could absolutely see students (or even normal developers) who aren’t used to thinking about security make that mistake. It is a very obvious way to implement it.

In retrospect I know that my senior project had some giant security issues. There were more things to look out for than I knew about at that time.
