The malware, identified by cybersecurity research firm Trend Micro, can spread to any device that shared an SSH connection once installed. The attack takes advantage of ADB ports not requiring authentication. Increasing amounts of cryptojacking accounts have been observed over the past year with attackers continuously evolving their methods.
