North Korean Hackers Inject Infected Apps To Detect Defectors

​The Sun Team, an old name in the cyber attack world, came up again when they injected 3 infected applications into the android Playstore to detect data of North Korean users, who had deviated from the country.​ This was identified as an act of revenge by North Korea. 

It wasn't until about a 100 downloads were made, that someone privately informed Google about the infected applications that were present in their Playstore. This isn't the first time hackers have used infected applications to gain access to user details, and it has been reported that it is really easy to do it.

The uploaded apps were:
  • The Food Ingredients Unfo (offered information on food).
  • Fast App Lock (to make apps secured).
  • Fast App Lock Free (again for security purposes).

However, the real motive behind making and uploading these apps was to pass malware into Android devices that downloaded and installed the program. The data that might have been hacked with the apps include user photos, addresses, text messages, call recordings, contacts etc. After the malware was uploaded, it accessed data through Dropbox and Yandex which allowed the hackers to pass commands and install plugin files for controllability.
