Here's what you need to know to protect your system and devices from BADBOX 2.0.
According to a report from HUMAN's Satori Threat Intelligence and Research team, attacks may then be carried out in a number of forms: programmatic ad and click fraud, which loads and clicks ads in the background to generate revenue; and residential proxy services, allowing for account takeover, fake account creation, one-time password theft, and malware distribution. For example, threat actors can route traffic through a victim's home IP address to hide malicious activity or use stolen data in credential stuffing attacks.
The scheme has affected more than a million devices around the world, all of which were manufactured in China and running AOSP. At this time, none of the devices known to be infected are particularly mainstream (i.e., not Play Protect certified Android devices), but they are still popular in many countries, and there's nothing to preclude a spread to other models.
How to prevent a BADBOX 2.0 infection
Other security best practices include keeping all operating systems up to date with patches and security fixes for known vulnerabilities and downloading apps only from trusted, official marketplaces (don't fall for "free streaming" apps). You should also keep an eye on network traffic to catch anything suspicious and isolate any devices that may be compromised as quickly as possible.
