Newly Registered Domains Distributing SpyNote Malware
Cybercriminals are employing deceptive websites on newly registered domains to distribute AndroidOS SpyNote malware. These sites imitate the Google Chrome install page on the Google Play Store, tricking users into downloading SpyNote, a powerful Android remote access trojan. SpyNote is used for surveillance, data exfiltration, and remote control of infected devices. The investigation uncovered multiple domains, IP addresses, and APK files associated with this campaign. The malware utilizes various C2 endpoints for communication and data exfiltration, with functions designed to retrieve and manipulate device information, contacts, SMS, and applications.
