Sturnus Android Trojan Steals Messages and Controls Devices

🔒Sturnus is a new Android banking trojan discovered by ThreatFabric that can capture decrypted messages from end-to-end encrypted apps like Signal, WhatsApp, and Telegram. It abuses Accessibility services and on-screen capture to read message content and deploys HTML overlays to harvest banking credentials. The malware also supports real-time, AES-encrypted VNC remote control and obtains Android Device Administrator privileges to resist removal while targeting European financial customers with region-specific overlays.
