A new android trojan that is distributed by advertising campaigns, Trojan.AndroidOS.Loapi, is making the rounds and this one is a bit different. Loapi is a modular trojan that can conduct many different attacks. It can mine crypto, launch DDoS attacks, annoy with constant ads and other types of nefarious stuff. Take a look at Securelist to get all the details on this nasty little piece of work.
Samples of the Loapi family are distributed via advertising campaigns. Malicious files are downloaded after the user is redirected to the attackers’ malicious web resource. We found more than 20 such resources, whose domains refer to popular antivirus solutions and even a famous porn site.
