Los investigadores de seguridad del equipo Mobile Threat de CheckPoint han descubierto una nueva campaña de adware en la plataforma Google Play Store. El malware, llamado SimBad, fue encontrado en más de 200 aplicaciones del market y ha recibido casi 150 millones de descargas entre todas ellas.
No te han tratado de engañar al instalar algunas de esas aplicaciones, lo que ha ocurrido al parecer sería que el SDK o kit de desarrollo de software RXDrioder, proporcionado por addroider[.]com como un SDK relacionado con anuncios, el que incorporaría el código malicioso a las aplicaciones desarrolladas con él. De este modo ha logrado estar presente en un gran número de aplicaciones de diferentes desarrolladores, Siendo engañados los desarrolladores que desconocían que sus creaciones incluirían algún comportamiento malicioso.
Como una de las funcionalidades del código malicioso es la de eliminar el incono de las aplicaciones del lanzador, para que sea más difícil de eliminar, se aconseja acceder a Ajustes > Aplicaciones y revisar el listado completo de aplicaciones instaladas en el dispositivo para descartar que no se tenga instalada ninguna app de las afectadas. A continuación os dejamos el listado completo de las aplicaciones hackeadas compilado por los expertos de Checkpoint:
