Microsoft memperingatkan ransomware Android yang aktif saat Anda menekan tombol Home

October 9, 2020 by Winnie the Pooh

Jenis baru ransomware seluler menyalahgunakan mekanisme di balik pemberitahuan “panggilan masuk” dan tombol “Home” untuk mengunci layar pada perangkat pengguna.

Dinamakan AndroidOS/MalLocker.B, ransomware tersembunyi di dalam aplikasi Android yang ditawarkan untuk diunduh di forum online dan situs web pihak ketiga.

Sama seperti kebanyakan jenis ransomware Android, MalLocker.B tidak benar-benar mengenkripsi file korban tetapi hanya mencegah akses ke bagian telepon lainnya.

Setelah terpasang, ransomware mengambil alih layar ponsel dan mencegah pengguna menutup catatan tebusan – yang dirancang agar terlihat seperti pesan dari penegak hukum setempat yang memberi tahu pengguna bahwa mereka melakukan kejahatan dan perlu membayar denda.

Ransomware ini menggunakan mekanisme dua bagian untuk menampilkan catatan tebusannya.

Bagian pertama menyalahgunakan notifikasi “panggilan”. Ini adalah fungsi yang mengaktifkan panggilan masuk untuk menunjukkan detail tentang pemanggil, dan MalLocker.B menggunakannya untuk menampilkan jendela yang mencakup seluruh area layar dengan detail tentang panggilan masuk.

Bagian kedua menyalahgunakan function “onUserLeaveHint()”. Function ini dipanggil saat pengguna ingin mendorong aplikasi ke latar belakang dan beralih ke aplikasi baru, dan terpicu saat menekan tombol seperti Home atau Recent Apps. MalLocker.B menyalahgunakan function ini untuk menampilkan catatan tebusan kembali ke latar depan dan mencegah pengguna meninggalkan catatan tebusan untuk layar utama atau aplikasi lain.

Karena MalLocker.B berisi kode yang terlalu sederhana dan keras untuk melewati ulasan Play Store, pengguna disarankan untuk menghindari menginstal aplikasi Android dari lokasi pihak ketiga seperti forum, iklan situs web, atau toko aplikasi pihak ketiga yang tidak sah.
