Description
The vulnerability exists in the application's failure to accurately reflect the collection of users' web browsing history in the privacy policy, potentially leading to a breach of user privacy and trust.
Recommendation
To mitigate the vulnerability of collecting users' web browsing history, ensure that your privacy policy clearly states the purpose of collecting this data, obtain explicit consent from users before collecting it, and implement strong security measures to protect the data from unauthorized access or misuse. Additionally, regularly review and update your privacy policy to reflect any changes in data collection practices.
