Several preinstalled bloatware stores such as Galaxy Store, Moto apps and so forth will default to opt-in to automatically installing 'recommended apps and games' - essentially spyware garbage they get kickbacks from - in the background, plus several flagship phones now come with Temu preinstalled.
The 90% of non technically-savvy Android users are 100% exposed to the OP exploit.
- AmbroseBierce 1y agoThe app needs to be opened by the user for the exploit to work, as seen in the video the researchers published, so the surface attack is big but not that big.
- rkagerer 1y agoI have definitely opened the wrong app by accident on a smartphone - super easy to tap the wrong thing in a variety of situations (grasping at an awkward angle to snap a photo, pocket taps, etc).
- kelvinjps10 1y agoI recommend the program universal android debloater, it will uninstall all those apps
- kotaKat 1y agoUnless the manufacturer has placed their malware loader into the “nodisable” list. Motorola are assholes and now prevent you from using pm to disable any of their malware loader apps on most of their phones.
