FluBot malware |
Affected Industries |

A newly discovered Android malware, dubbed FluBot, impersonates Android mobile banking applications to draw fake webview on targeted applications. The malware primarily focuses on stealing credit card details or online banking credentials, apart from personal data.
FluBot is distributed via SMS and can eavesdrop on incoming notifications, initiate calls, read or write SMSes, and transmit the victim’s contact list to its control center. It infects Android devices by posing as FedEx, DHL, Correos, and Chrome applications and forces the unsuspecting user to change the Accessibility settings on the device so as to maintain persistence on the device.
It leverages fake login screens of prominent banks. Once the user enters their login details on these phony pages, the data is immediately sent to the malware operator’s control center. Which the malware operators easily exploit. It intercepts all banking-related OTPs by replacing the default SMS app on the targeted device. Thus, it receives access keys sent via SMS. Furthermore, it sends similar SMSes to other contacts, on the target device, to lure them into downloading the fake app.
In a span of 2 months, the FluBot malware strain infected over 60,000 devices. Around 97% of its victims are located in Spain. Moreover, it has access to mobile phone numbers of around 11 million Spanish citizens.
The malware creates a backdoor which grants access to the user’s device. This enables the attacker to perform malicious operations and even launch other malware variants.
