These applications belong to the same developer (Myournet) and integrate all the exploit called "rage-against-the-cage", which allows malicious code to get administrator rights (root) on versions of Android greater than 2.2.2.
AndroidMarket rise above the 100’000 applications
The figure is more symbolic than historical. But it still reflects, among other signs, the success of Google's mobile OS, especially among the developer community.
According AndroLib, a company that has made a specialty of analyzing the Android Market, the gallery of the OS just to rise above the 100,000 applications.
The second is that the company includes in its assessment of applications (about 18,000) who have subsequently been withdrawn (including malicious applications that used the Android flaws revealed at Black Hat Conference for the last?).
The number of downloadable applications has substantially exceeded one billion.
An impressive figure which does not suffer him, no comment.
