Sadly, it goes well beyond BIDV and Agribank as well. There is a lot of similar hacky fingerprinting done by all the Vietnamese banking apps.
My understanding is it's because there was some regulatory change in the last 1-2 years requiring identity fingerprinting using banking apps, and partially related with the new biometrics rollout [0]
So the law is now requiring that you find zero day exploits in iOS in order to make a banking app? Are there banking websites you can use instead? Are criminals incapable of using these websites for malicious purposes?
