I was just analyzing the Whatsapp application for Android, used for instant 
messaging. To my surprise, i found out that, the database file where it 
stores its IM conversations log, is having the read permission for 
everyone. 

Does that mean that i could create a malicious application and extract the 
msgstore.db file from it.
