While privacy issues in children's mobile applications are becoming increasingly sophisticated, the permissions in these applications are undergoing development without proper security implementation. Mobile applications with excessive privacy features can cause serious data leakages and other similar privacy issues, which can exert detrimental repercussions on children's security. In this paper, we have conducted a risk assessment for this security matter, where we identified the risk, applied the controls, determined the residual risk, and established a set of recommendations.
