SonarSnoop attack can steal your smartphone’s unlock patterns

-
Smartphone unlock patterns can be hacked using SonarSnoop attack Researchers from Lancaster and Linkoping University have come up with a new attack technique that uses your smartphone’s speaker and microphone to steal unlock patterns from Android devices, reports ZDNet. Dubbed as ‘SonarSnoop’, this method transforms a smartphone’s speaker and microphone into a sonar and uses sound waves to track a user’s finger position across the screen. In other words, the attack technique depends on the basic echo principle of sonar systems. For those unaware, Sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging) uses sound propagation normally in submarines for detecting objects on or under the surface of the water, such as other vessels. The study has been published in the research paper titled “SonarSnoop: Active Acoustic Side-Channel Attacks” that has detailed testing information of SonarSnoop on a Samsung Galaxy S4 running Android 5.0.1. How does the SonarSnoop attack work? Sonar...

It’s only been a month since Google has released the latest version of Android 9.0 Pie, but it looks like the search giant has already started gearing up for Android Q. However, this time with Android Q, it plans to aggressively push developers to update their apps. Last year, Google had released a new policy that imposed restrictions on the apps uploaded and updated on the Play Store. According to the policy, the new apps are required to target API (Application Programme Interface) level 26 (Android 8.0 Oreo) as of last month or later version and the same API level for updates to existing apps from November 2018 onwards . Besides this, a new commit (spotted by XDA-Developers) on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) shows Android Q will warn users attempting to install apps on the new platform that target Android Lollipop or lower. An image quoted by XDA-Developers reads a warning message that says, “This app was built for an older version of An...
