据国外媒体报道,安全厂商Dasient对1万款Android应用进行了研究,发现逾8%的应用向没有获得授权的计算机传输用户的个人资料。这类恶意件旨在控制用户的智能手机。例如,11款应用会自动向用户通信录中的联系人发送短信。如果用户需要为短信付费,用户在不知情的情况下就可能需要支付巨额账单。
Dasient首席技术官尼尔·达斯万尼(Neil Daswani)表示,在过去2年内,恶意的Android应用增长了1倍。用户可能在访问网站时不知不觉地被安装了恶意件。
Android Market不对提交的应用进行审查是恶意Android应用泛滥的一大原因。
尽管开发者无需等待应用通过审批,但这样做的代价却要有用户来承担。由于没有采取最基本的措施确保应用不是恶意件,如果当前的趋势不发生改变,未来两年内Android Market中将充斥着大量恶意件。
除用户的个人资料外,恶意件还经常泄露手机的IMEI码(国际移动电话设备识别码)和IMSI码(国际移动用户识别码)。这些信息被泄露后,犯罪分子可以方便地复制用户的SIM卡,或将信息批量出售给非法组织。
