Sturnus Android Banking Trojan Targets Southern Europe

🛡️ ThreatFabric has detailed a new Android banking trojan named Sturnus that combines screen-capture, accessibility abuse, and overlays to steal credentials and enable full device takeover. The malware captures decrypted messages from WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal by recording the device screen, serves region-specific fake banking login screens, and contacts operator servers via WebSocket/HTTP to receive encrypted payloads and enable remote VNC-style control. It resists cleanup by blocking uninstallation and leveraging administrator privileges.
