Mobdro Pro VPN Under Fire for Compromising User Privacy

A disturbing revelation that highlights the persistent threat that malicious software poses to Android users has been brought to the attention of cybersecurity researchers, who have raised concerns over a deceptive application masquerading as a legitimate streaming and VPN application. Despite the app’s promise that it offers free access to online television channels and virtual private networking features—as well as the name Modpro IPTV Plus VPN—it hides a much more dangerous purpose.

It is known as Mobdro Pro IPTV Plus VPN.

Cleafy conducted an in-depth analysis of this software program and found that, as well as functioning as a sophisticated Trojan horse laced with Klopatra malware, it is also able to compromise users’ financial data, infiltrating devices, securing remote controls, and infecting devices with Klopatra malware. 

Even though it is not listed in Google Play, it has spread through sideloaded installations that appeal to users with the lure of free services, causing users to download it.

There is a serious concern among experts that those who install this app may unknowingly expose their devices, bank accounts, and other financial assets to severe security risks. At first glance, the application appears to be an enticing gateway to free, high-quality IPTV channels and VPN services, and many Android users find the offer hard to refuse.
