Android Flaw Allows Hackers to Surreptitiously Modify Apps
From: http://arstechnica.com
The weakness involves the way legitimate Android applications are cryptographically signed to ensure they haven't been modified by parties other than the trusted developer, according to a blog post published Wednesday by researchers from mobile security startup Bluebox.
The flaw has existed since at least the release of Android 1.6 almost four years ago.
Hackers who exploit the vulnerability can modify app code to include backdoors, keyloggers, or other malicious functionality without changing the verification signature.
