StrictMode violation due to "Untagged socket detected"

[perracodex]

We are getting a StrictMode violation. I've tried to ignore it by setting permitNetwork(), yet still failing.
We can't ignore this issue as we use a penaltyDeath in our StrictMode configuration.

StrictMode policy violation: android.os.strictmode.UntaggedSocketViolation: Untagged socket detected; use TrafficStats.setThreadSocketTag() to track all network usage

@perracolabs yes, this one is due to okhttp.
I'll be looking into that.

[perracodex]

Regarding this issue, I've found that it was reported in the okhttp repository.

See issue : square/okhttp#3537

Someone in the thread suggested next as a solution:

[ALexanderLonsky]

Thank you! I'll take a look

Hey @perracolabs,
are you still facing this issue in the latest version?

[perracodex]

Yes still happens. I'm with version 2.1.17

To solve the issue the library in Giphy which uses okhttp (I assume is actually fresco), needs to set the threat stats tag, otherwise the problem will always exist.

See issue : square/okhttp#3537

[ALexanderLonsky]

Thank you for the quick reply!
Yes, this is Fresco that uses okhttp. I updated it in the latest release and was not able to reproduce the issue on my end, but now I see it did not help.
