Over 100 million Android phones put at risk by Truecaller flaw | #MobileSecurity #CyberSecurity #Awareness

Over 100 million Android phones put at risk by Truecaller flaw | #MobileSecurity #CyberSecurity #Awareness | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
More than 100 million Android devices are vulnerable to identity theft and phishing attacks as a result of a recently discovered flaw in a phone call management app called Truecaller.

On Monday, security researchers at Cheetah Mobile published a blog post in which they discuss how the bug allows bad actors to steal users' personal information, which could open the door to subsequent attacks against the platform's users.

Truecaller is a service available for Android, iOS, and Symbian devices as well as Blackberry phones. It enables users to search for phone numbers, block incoming calls/text messages from spammers and telemarketers, as well as connect with friends.

Kaspersky Lab warnt vor gefährlichem Android-Trojaner Acecard | MobileSecurity | Apps | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
Unsere Experten konnten einen der bislang gefährlichsten Banktrojaner für das Betriebssystem Android identifizieren. Acecard richtet sich gegen fast 50 Android-Apps für Online-Banking und Online-Payment und umgeht zudem die Sicherheitsmaßnahmen von Google Play. Betroffen sind auch Bankkunden in Deutschland und Österreich, aber auch Nutzer von Instant-Messengern wie WhatsApp und Sozialen Netzwerken wie Facebook.


Wir empfehlen daher Anwendern, keine zweifelhaften Apps von Google Play oder anderen Quellen herunterzuladen, verdächtige Webseiten und Links zu meiden, sowie alle mobilen Android-Geräte mit einer Schutzlösung wie Kaspersky Internet Security for Android auszurüsten sowie die zugehörigen Antivirus-Datenbanken immer aktuell zu halten.

Heartbleed Bug—Mobile Apps are Affected Too

Heartbleed Bug—Mobile Apps are Affected Too | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
All the extended coverage of the Heartbleed flaw begs the question, “Are mobile devices affected by this?” The short answer: yes.


The severity of the Heartbleed bug has led countless websites and servers scrambling to address the issue. And with good reason—a test conducted on Github showed that more than 600 of the top 10,000 sites (based on Alexa rankings) were vulnerable. At the time of the scanning, some of the affected sites included Yahoo, Flickr, OKCupid, Rolling Stone, and Ars Technica.

All the extended coverage of the flaw begs the question, “Are mobile devices affected by this?” The short answer: yes.

Mobile apps, like it or not, are just as vulnerable to the Heartbleed Bug as websites are because apps often connect to servers and web services to complete various functions. As our previous blog entry has shown, a sizable number of domains are affected by this vulnerability.

Experts Find WhatsApp Vulnerabilities That “the NSA Would Love”

Experts Find WhatsApp Vulnerabilities That “the NSA Would Love” | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Shortly after Facebook announced buying WhatsApp, many users raised privacy concerns. Soon enough, security experts revealed identifying a number of vulnerabilities, which they catalogued as being exactly the kind “the NSA would love.”

The security issues have been identified by Praetorian. The company’s new mobile application security testing platform Project Neptune has been put to the test.


A total of four SSL-related security holes have been identified. First, researchers found that SSL pinning is not enforced.


This allows an attacker to launch a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack between the mobile application and the backend web services and capture user credentials and other sensitive information.

Über HTTP Request Hijacking sollen sich Hacker in iOS-Apps einschleichen und so den Datentraffic über eigene Server umleiten können. Nach erfolgreichem Angriff soll die Umleitung dann permanent aktiv sein.

Drive-by exploits were identified as the number-one threat facing companies and computer users, but the company warned that other threats were rising in popularity – such as malicious browser extensions.


“It is worth mentioning that an increase in malicious browser extensions has been registered, aimed at taking over social network accounts,” ENISA said. An ESET report on a malicious extension in the popular Orbit downloader can be found here.
