Apps available on play store directly do not contain any malicious code that helped apps to bypass Google Bouncer protections.

Once downloaded, the app silently registers user device to a remote command and control server, and in reply, it receives the actual malicious payload containing a JavaScript that starts the actual malicious process.

“The malware opens the URLs using the user agent that imitates a PC browser in a hidden webpage and receives a redirection to another website,” the researchers say. “Once the targeted website is launched, the malware uses the JavaScript code to locate and click on banners from the Google ads infrastructure.”

The malicious apps are actual legitimate games, but in the background, they act as a bridge to connect the victim’s device to the adware server.

Once the connection is established, the malicious apps spoof user agents to imitate itself as a desktop browser to open a page and generate clicks.

Here’s a list of malicious apps developed by Kiniwini and if you have any of these installed on your device, remove it immediately:
