CWE-276: Incorrect Default Permissions

[wojciodataist]

Hi,

I'm performing a security tests on an android mobile app that uses android-checkout-sdk.
While doing code analysis of the app I've stumbled upon an issue with: The file or SharedPreference is World Writable. Any App can write to the file which is a standard of:
CWE-276: Incorrect Default Permissions
OWASP Top 10: M2: Insecure Data Storage
OWASP MASVS: MSTG-STORAGE-2

The issue is stored in com/paypal/pyplcheckout/data/repositories/cache/Cache.java

Is this something that we should take care of on our side? If so, then maybe you have some suggestions what can be done?
