Question

Is MyAndroid safe?

Accepted Answer

MyAndroid is high risk. The extension fetches a keyword list from www.myandroid.org once per hour and uses it to decide which URLs to transmit. Dynamic analysis confirmed the fetched list — containing terms like 'apk', 'aab', 'xapk' — was stored in local storage and operationally controlled collection: pages whose URLs did not match the list produced no outbound requests, while three APK-related navigations each triggered transmission. Dynamic analysis captured the extension transmitting full page URLs to www.myandroid.org on each navigation where the URL contained a keyword from a remotely-hosted list. The request includes a hex-encoded URL and a persistent per-user ID. During testing, three navigation events to APK-related pages each produced an outbound GET request to the collection endpoint within seconds.
