In general, are these exploits in memory only? If I reboot my phone, is that likely to impact anything? Or is it usually possible to persist them to the file system?
- ReptileMan 3y agoYou have secure chain of boot so you can't launch the malicious stuff on boot. But - this doesn't prevent you once you have root to modify some app and system settings for the phone to reinfect itself eventually (proxies, vpn, who knows what)
