Abstract :
There are well-known attack techniques that threaten current apps stores. However, the complexity of these environments and their high rate of variability have prevented any effective analysis aimed at mitigating the effects of these threats. In this paper, the analysis performed over one of these techniques, Shuabang, is introduced. The completion of this analysis has been supported by a new tool that facilitates the correlation of large amounts of information from different apps stores.
