Baptiste, people commenting have no clue of how new attack vectors such as Man-in-the-Disk attack work.Your finding is relevant as any malicious application with read/write access to the external storage can access/modify files.

It is *obvious* whatsapp doesn't encrypt attachments locally, because they're visible in your gallery app. It's a feature not a bug. By your logic, the android camera app is pretty bad because it also stores images to sd card, accessible to all apps with read_sdcard permission.

If not in SD card then app size bloats on phone over the years of usage resulting in slowing down the app and phone and uninstalling the app would remove all your data along with the app?!

How do you know which type of extension that file was before ? Let's say you've managed somehow to download thousands of files from a user ..
