Android-Toolkit kann jeden zum Hacker machen

Android-Toolkit kann jeden zum Hacker machen | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Ein Softwarehaus namens Zimperium hat eine App gebaut, mit der auch Laien Android-Systeme angreifen können.

 

Natürlich hatten die Macher von Zimperium nicht im Sinn, möglichst viele neue Datendiebe auf die Menschheit loszulassen. Ihre Intention für die »Android Network Toolkit App« (kurz Anti) geht dahin, dass damit Firmen in der Lage wären, ihre Android-Infrastruktur und ihre selbstgestrickten Apps auf Schwachstellen zu überprüfen. Richtig eingesetzt, gelingt es dem vermeintlichen Hacker damit, sogar bis auf Windows-Computer und iOS-Geräte vorzudringen.

Twitter bug gives 3rd-party apps access to users' Direct Messages | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Some of these applications might have gained access to and might still have access to Twitter users private direct messages," he points out, and advises users to check third-party applications permissions and revoke the apps to which they never gave permission to access their DMs.

Im Social Network Facebook kursiert aktuell eine gefälschte WhatsApp-Anwendung, die Nutzerdaten stiehlt.
