It can be <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/AhMyth\/AhMyth-Android-RAT\">found<\/a> on Github, of all places.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The malicious functionality in AhMyth is not hidden, protected, or obfuscated. For this reason, it is trivial to identify the Radio Balouch app \u2013 and other derivatives \u2013 as malicious and classify them as belonging to the AhMyth family,&#8221; opined Luk\u00e1\u0161 \u0160tefanko, the ESET researcher who took a close look at the app.<\/p>\n<p>In a detailed statement about the malware, ESET explained: &#8220;For C&amp;C communication, Radio Balouch relies on its (now defunct) radiobalouch[.]com domain. This is where it would send information it has gathered about its victims \u2013 notably information about the compromised devices, and the victims&#8217; contacts lists. As with the account credentials, the C&amp;C traffic is transmitted unencrypted over an HTTP connection.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The number of downloads of Radio Balouch&#8217;s app was noted by ESET to be in the hundreds.<\/p>\n<p>What was most concerning, however, was ESET&#8217;s observation that the app was on the Google Play store \u2013 which is supposedly vetted to stop malware-laden apps from entering, but managed to enter at least twice to their knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>The app&#8217;s legitimacy was astroturfed through the creation of YouTube and Instagram accounts, making it seem superficially legitimate.<\/p>\n<p>Google Play&#8217;s review processes, whatever they are, are not known for their thoroughness.
