Description

We're using the Data Theorem mobile security too and getting the following high priority alert:

**Google Play Blocker: Cross App Scripting Vulnerability**
The following Java or Kotlin Activities contain WebViews that are vulnerable to Cross App Scripting: com.box.androidsdk.content.auth.OAuthActivity

WebViews that enable JavaScript and load data read from untrusted Intents can be tricked by malicious Apps into executing JavaScript code in an unsafe context.

Is this a known issue? is there a plan for getting it fixed?
I can post their recommended solutions if needed.

*. we're currently using version 5.0.0 which is available on Maven but I can't find any reference for it in the repository releases, should we change it to the latest one shown here? (4.2.3)
