Beware: Off-Brand Android devices may be infected by Badbox malware

Badbox, an Android malware thought to be based on the Triada family of malware has apparently infected 1,92,000 devices worldwide despite the German authority’s recent crackdown on its botnet network.

First discovered in early 2023 on a T95 Android TV box available on Amazon, a recent report by BitSight researcher Pedro Fale says that Badbox “still seems to be very much alive and spreading.”
