GOOGLE PLAY STORE MALWARE HITS 42 APPS WITH 8 MILLION DOWNLOADS

By Trevor Mogg October 24, 2019
Share

Another day, another batch of Play Store apps found to contain malware.

Contents
 * The alleged perpetrator
 * Choosing apps

This time, the 42 adware-infected apps received 8 million downloads in a
campaign that lasted more than a year.

ESET, the long-established cybersecurity firm that discovered the adware, said
that Google has now removed all of the offending apps, though it added that the
software remains available on third-party app stores.

While many apps show ads legitimately, adware is considered a more sinister
presence in that it, for example, serves up scam ads, gathers users’ personal
information, drains a phone’s battery, and can be annoyingly persistent.

In this case, the malicious software served full-screen ads at random intervals
and made it difficult for the user to know which app was responsible for the
ads.

It also gathered data from the user’s handset that included device type, OS
version, language, number of installed apps, available storage space, battery
status, whether the device is rooted and developer mode enabled, and whether
Facebook and Facebook Messenger are installed.

The apps were able to remain available on the Play Store for many months because
the adware was designed to function in a way that gave it a greater chance of
evading detection by Google’s security systems.


THE ALLEGED PERPETRATOR

An extensive investigation detailed in its blog post led ESET to conclude the
adware is the work of a college student in Vietnam. According to the
cybersecurity firm, the developer started out by creating legitimate apps, but
later included the adware to boost his income.

“The various stealth and resilience techniques implemented in the adware show us
that the culprit was aware of the malicious nature of the added functionality
and attempted to keep it hidden,” ESET said.

The most popular of the offending apps was Video Downloader Master, which
received 5 million downloads before it was removed from the Play Store. Here are
the apps that ESET reported to Google:

If you have any of the above apps on your Android handset or tablet, the advice
is to delete them immediately. Some of the apps were also found in Apple’s App
Store but contained no adware, ESET said.


CHOOSING APPS

ESET’s discovery is a timely reminder to take care when choosing apps to
download to your device. If the app is new or isn’t well known, it’s worth
spending a little time researching reviews or looking online for information on
the developer.

Malicious apps have always been an issue for the Play Store, though Google said
earlier this year that it’s working constantly to improve its abuse detection
technologies and machine learning systems to deal with the issue, and employs a
team of human reviewers, too.

In further efforts, the Google Play Protect security platform scans 50 billion
apps on users’ devices on a daily basis to check the safety of the installed
software.

In 2017, Google deleted 700,000 malicious apps from the Play Store, and banned
100,000 developers from submitting new ones.

Google’s Android monopoly finds its biggest challenge, and Apple might be next


The Competition Commission of India slapped Google with two hefty fines over
anti-competitive strategies that have allowed it to dominate the mobile
ecosystem in India. Totaling over $250 million, the penalties reprimand Google
for forcing smartphone makers to avoid Android forks, prefer Google’s web search
service, and pre-install popular cash cows like YouTube on phones.

Google was also disciplined for forcing its own billing system on developers
that allowed the giant to take up to a 30% share of all in-app purchases for
applications listed on the app store. Google is not really a stranger to titanic
penalties; The EU handed Google a record-breaking fine of approximately $5
billion in 2018 for abusing its dominant market position — a penalty that was
upheld in September this year following Google’s appeal.

Google overhauls its Family Link app for easier parental controls


Google's Family Link app has been a great resource for parents looking to keep
an eye on what their children are up to with their devices. Now, it's getting
even better thanks to an app overhaul that puts the focus on safety and
communication. While the Google Family Link app has previously been praised for
its solid parental control settings, the redesign adds plenty of new features
that make it easier than ever for parents to monitor smart device usage while
keeping children informed about the parental control settings in place.

In addition to a design update that sorts the app into three main tabs
(Highlights, Controls, and Location), there's also a laundry list of new
features coming to Family Link. Since safety is a huge part of what makes the
app appealing, features such as notification alerts when a device arrives at a
specific destination (like school or a friend's house) and the ability to see an
individual device's battery life are new additions that give parents peace of
mind when their kids leave the house.

Google wants you to know Android apps aren’t just for phones anymore


When most people think of the Google Play Store, the first thing that comes to
mind is smartphones. However, the spread of the Android ecosystem is far broader
than that, and Google is taking steps to increase awareness of this and make it
easier for folks to find apps on the Play Store for their smart TVs, watches,
and even cars.

In a blog post today, the Google Play team announced three significant changes
that should make it easier for Android fans to discover apps for all their
devices, right from their phone. This includes recommendations of apps for
non-phone devices, a search filter to focus on only games optimized for
non-phone devices, and even a remote install feature that will let you deliver
those apps to your Android TV, Wear OS watch, or Android Automotive-equipped
car.
