In 2019, ESET telemetry recorded almost five times more Android stalkerware detections than in 2018, and in 2020, almost 1.5 times more were recorded than in 2019. In addition, ESET Research has discovered\u202fserious vulnerabilities\u202fin Android stalkerware apps and their monitoring servers\u202fthat could result\u202fin\u202fserious user impact if exploited. \u201cSecurity: The Hidden Cost of Android Stalkerware\u201d will be presented today, May 17, 2021, by ESET researcher Luk\u00e1\u0161 \u0160tefanko from 11:20 to 12:00 PDT (20:20 to 21:00 CEST).<\/p><p>For stalkerware vendors, to stay under the radar and avoid being flagged as stalkerware, their apps are in many cases promoted as providing protection to children, employees, or women, yet the word \u201cspy\u201d is used many times on their websites. \u201cSearching for these tools online isn\u2019t difficult at all; you don\u2019t have to browse underground websites,\u201d explains \u0160tefanko.<\/p><p>ESET researchers manually analyzed 86 stalkerware apps for the Android platform, provided by 86 different vendors. This analysis identified many serious security and privacy issues that could result in a third party \u2013 an attacker \u2013 taking control of a victim\u2019s device, taking over a stalker\u2019s account, intercepting a victim\u2019s data, framing a victim by uploading fabricated evidence, or achieving remote code execution on a victim\u2019s smartphone. Across 58 of these Android applications, ESET discovered a total of 158 security and privacy issues that can have a serious impact on a victim; indeed, even the stalker or the app\u2019s vendor may be at some risk.<\/p><p>Among the most prevalent issues were insecure transmission of users\u2019 personally identifiable information; storage of sensitive information on external media; exposure of sensitive user information to unauthorized users; server leak of stalkerware client information; and unauthorized data transmission from device to server.<\/p><p>\u201cFollowing our 90-day <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eset.com\/int\/research\/vulnerability-disclosure-policy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">coordinated vulnerability disclosure policy<\/a>, we repeatedly reported these issues to the affected vendors. Unfortunately, to this day, only six vendors have fixed the issues we reported in their apps,\u201d says \u0160tefanko.<\/p><p>For more technical details about ESET\u2019s analysis of Android stalkerware, read the blogpost \u201cAndroid stalkerware threatens victims further and exposes snoopers themselves\u201d and the white paper \u201cXYZ\u201d on WeLiveSecurity.
