Pre-Installed Android Trojan

The Trojan Dr. Web calls Android.Triada.231 comes pre-installed (but not for your convenience) in the firmware of a number of Android mobile devices ‘ including Leagoo M5 Plus, Leagoo M8, Nomu S10, and Nomu S20.’

For Graham Cluley’s blog, David Bisson points out that ‘The security firm has contacted the manufacturers with the request that they push out updates to the affected devices…But as we all know by now, updates are too few and far between on too many Android devices.’
