A powerful money-siphoning malware known as MobOk has been found hiding in seemingly legitimate photo editing apps available on the Google Play store.
The Pink Camera and Pink Camera 2 apps, now removed, had been installed around 10,000 times, according to researchers at Kaspersky. They included genuine (though limited) photo-editing functionality, but also came with a highly dangerous backdoor that could offer the attacker almost complete control over an infected device.
