Klopatra Android Banking Trojan Hits 3,000+ Devices

🔒 Cleafy has uncovered Klopatra, a previously undocumented Android banking trojan that has infected over 3,000 devices—predominantly in Spain and Italy. The malware leverages Hidden VNC for remote device control and dynamic overlays to harvest credentials, while integrating the commercial Virbox protection suite and native libraries to evade detection and analysis. Operators distribute Klopatra via social-engineered IPTV droppers, abuse Android accessibility permissions to persist and perform actions, and use a black-screen VNC mode and stolen PINs or patterns to unlock devices and execute rapid fraudulent transfers.
