For the first time, hacked websites deliver Android malware

Lookout Mobile Security found websites that have been hacked to deliver malicious software to Android devices. The attack is known as a drive-by download and is common on the desktop. The malware that tries to install itself, dubbed “NotCompatible,” appears to be a TCP relay or a proxy. Lookout said it noticed that “numerous” websites had been compromised to execute the attack, although those sites had low traffic. The company expects the impact to Android users will be low, but could potentially be used to gain illicit access to networks.”]
