Malware Bypasses Google Play Protect to Phish Users

Security researchers at ESET have released a report concerning a new type of malware found on the Google Play Store that appears to use intricate 2-stage encryption / decryption to bypass the Play Protect feature. Named “Android/TrojanDropper.Agent.BKY”, the malware was found to have infected 8 apps (till now) and all of which have been removed now.

How Does this Malware Work?

When this malware attacks on App, the infected apps function as intended, leaving no room for suspicion. Meanwhile, the deep-seated malware downloads malicious apps without users’ knowledge. The malware then prompts users to install add-ons like Adobe Flash Player or simply an Android update which decrypts and executes the malicious code which in turn installs a banking trojan for phishing usernames and passwords.
