A Novel Attack against Android Phones
Abstract
In the first quarter of 2011, Android has become the top-selling operating system for smartphones. In this paper, we present a novel, highly critical attack that allows unprompted installation of arbitrary applications from the Android Market. Our attack is based on a single malicious application, which, in contrast to previously known attacks, does not require the user to grant it any permissions.
