UK and US Android users have been saddled with unwanted apps via malicious ads that executed a drive-by download attack.
According to Zscaler researchers, the malicious ads were posted on forums, including one named GodLikeProductions, a relatively popular site that serves a community of conspiracy theorists.
If loaded by Android users, the ads would trigger the automatic download of an app named Ks Clean (kskas.apk), which poses as a cleaner app.
