A new Android trojan called SoumniBot has been detected in the wild targeting users in South Korea by leveraging weaknesses in the manifest extraction and parsing procedure.
The malware is “notable for an unconventional approach to evading analysis and detection, namely obfuscation of the Android manifest,” Kaspersky researcher Dmitry Kalinin said in a technical analysis.
